This is my first music video. It is the first song I wrote and composed.
This is my story...
I have shown interest for music since I was 4 years old and started taking guitar lessons when we moved to the Houston area in 2013.
My first attempt to write a song was ‘I love you’… but it never progressed 😉.
When I was 7 years old, I stopped guitar lessons because my teacher retired. I tried piano when I was 9 years old.
When I started piano lessons, I started practicing karate – I earned my black belt in 2021.
Since I was 10 years old, I spent lots of time singing either while practicing piano or playing with friends or while in the shower… singing all day long! Due to this interest in singing, my parents thought it would be a good idea to join a music school where they teach vocal training, instruments, and songwriting theory; I joined Sarah Kelly Music School in 2019.
In 2019, at the age of 11, I composed my first song: Broken. In that same year I composed Refugee. At the age of 12 I wrote Alone With Nothing, at 13 years old Picture Perfect and at 14 years old Fallen Down and Girl In The Mirror.

Full Measure Productions
Recording this first album has been one of my best experiences and… yes, producing songs has a cost… Therefore, I had to figure out a way to earn money. My grandad planted an avocado tree outside of his house in Mexico and for 10 years it has produced around 300 avocados per year. So, I thought growing and selling avocado trees might be a good way to earn money and pay for the album production. And it worked; I sold several trees through our Community Facebook page.
Starting at 12 years old (2019), I have performed at events organized by Sarah Kelly Music School, such as Live at The Lawn (Market Street at The Woodlands) and Dosey Doe the Barn (The Woodlands, TX).
I also have tried finding different venues to perform and been lucky to be allowed to perform in the open mic at Dosey Doe Breakfast, BBQ & Whiskey Bar (The Woodlands, TX) as well as in the Trilogy Brew (Old Town Spring, TX).
I recorded my first music video (Broken) in 2021.
Shooting started in May 2021 at two different locations: indoors and at the Waterway in The Woodlands.
The final video was ready in July 2021. The video was directed by Paco Jimenez brandlife.mx
