I was just a child who had lost her mother.” — Tiffany

 

Following the death of her mother, she took the time to think about what would make her feel better, and that was only one thing.

She credited music for saving her.

“Music was the only thing that made me feel understood and made me feel better. I rooted myself in that. It was a process to navigate what my life and feelings were, but I think music saved me in every way.” — Tiffany

 

Tiffany also revealed her plans for future music releases, saying she has a lot prepared already!

“I have been working on music since last September. I do have a lot of music done and I would love to continuously be able to release music until it leads to a full album. I don’t ever want to slow myself down when creating or challenging myself.”
