I named this album PHOENIX because I felt that the symbolism was such a clear representation of the journey of my life. I am the Phoenix ... as are all who have the courage to move beyond their pain and setbacks and choose to persevere despite obstacles and shortcomings. We bravely walk through the fire and rise from the ashes of our perceived "weakness" to become a beacon of light to shine in the world. It's what makes our frail humanity truly glorious.
