Favorite quotes: Follow
your heart in life and everything is possible.
We are all people with a heart so show Respect, Love &
Tolerance for all people.
Inspirations: The
rhythm of the beats in Punjabi music, the rich culture of Punjab, the
warmhearted Punjabis and their hospitality, the colors, the food, the stunning
Punjabi women with their beautiful clothes and jewelries, the legendary love
stories of Punjab, the respect for elderly people, the Mela’s and getting to
know about so many different religions and values – including all the rituals
and ceremonies I have experienced while living more than four years in Punjab. The
legendary Gurdas Mann and Surinder Kaur are great inspirations.
Tell us a bit about
yourself?
I am born and raised in Denmark, just outside Copenhagen, and
became deeply inspired by my dad’s singing and playing the guitar. So from 7 and
onwards I sang in the school chorus and quickly realized that my passion in
life was singing. I joined the Girl’s chorus of Radio Denmark from I was 13
years old and, had years of classical singing training and began singing
professionally from 15 onwards. In London I got my formal education from
Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts, graduated in 2001 with a musical theatre
degree. My singing career has taken me around the world and I love being able
to live out my dream.
