Serious/Silly Questions:
When did you know you wanted music to be your profession?
You know, I was kind of always one of those little girls who would sing into the hairbrush microphone and dream of being Christina Aguilera when I grow up. So I always just kind of assumed I would pursue music since I’ve always been inclined toward to it. It came naturally to me really.

And then my sophomore year of highschool was when I really decided that music is what I’m going to do. And that was kind of around the time that I really discovered Berklee. Once I discovered Berklee had a songwriting major, I was sold. I was like, that’s my goal in life. I have it now.

What’s your guilty pleasure artist, album, or song?
I guess Taylor Swift. I love Taylor Swift. I mean, as a songwriter, she’s amazing. I mean this girl is, like, what 19? And how many number 1 hits has she had so far?! She’s outstanding to me. I love her – I really do. I guess that would be my guilty pleasure.

Thank you so much, Meghan, for letting me interview & photograph you for the 5 Cubed series!
