What I love about jazz is the improvisation, the fact that you never know what's going to happen next.

I love the guitar because you can bring it everywhere, and you can start a jam wherever you are.

My main goal in life is to be happy. If I can make other people happy by doing what I love, then I feel like I've done everything in life that I've wanted. I just want to make people feel good and change people's lives with music, and that's it.

For me, jazz offers so much freedom in the way the music can be interpreted. It's natural to me. It's where I feel most free.

My first memories of music are of my mother playing Dominican music in the house because my parents love to dance. They love to throw parties and dance, so there was a lot Latin music in the house.

I don't know about you, but I love going on trips - especially with my family.
