"I've been fortunate to live a very full professional life. Most of it has happened through God's graciousness and not from something I've imagined."
"Learn your craft well. Take care of your own business. Success (popularity) is fleeting for most, but longevity lies in a quality craft with integrity. Oh, and don't take yourself too seriously."
"When I stay focused and honest about who I am and the image that I hope to portray, then I won't find myself stranded in unfamiliar territory chasing money or popularity. If the work that you do is quality, then you'll be rewarded. It's also good to stretch musically within the realm of your ability, but not if it compromises your integrity."
"I'm so honored to have been a part of something so meaningful that helped to keep so many families and loved ones connected."
"I enjoyed all of the tours and learned something from everyone."
