sammysamica asked: I read your story in the "about me" section of your website. First of all, your story is important, inspirational, and simultaneously universal and unique. My question for you is regarding the part where you said you faced many challenges in the music business for being female. I'm a 20 year old female looking to get into the music business. I don't know as what yet, maybe a tour manager, and I've had great experiences so far in college relating to the biz, but what were some of your obstacles?

The main obstacle being a girl in a boy’s world is that bad rep that most girls have made for themselves.  Girls aren’t exactly treated seriously, especially girls in the touring world.  If you haven’t experienced it yet, you will.  But you just have to believe in what you’re doing 10000000%, know you will have to prove yourself ten times more than a guy will, and remember to stay professional.  I have faith in you, woman!
