I experienced a job loss and a bad break up in August of 2024.
Although it was a very traumatic experience, it led me on a journey of feeling lost and realizing I didn’t know who I was anymore. Along the way, I found myself thinking a lot about what home actually means. Not a physical place, but a space within yourself.
Turns out getting laid off gave me space to actually hear myself think again… when I stopped people pleasing, it gave me the space to think about “me”.
What do I want?
What do I like?
Slowing down made me realize how much of myself I’d left behind trying to keep up…and for once, I was able to experience myself and create without worrying if it made sense to anyone else…
Something about your 30’s makes you revisit what you loved as a kid and I’m beginning to return to who I was before the world interrupted me.
When I was a kid, I absolutely loved playing with dollhouses and through this journey, I started to revisit them and looking at miniatures (as a way of reconnecting with my inner child).
I wanted to transform this journey into an album about
“Coming home to yourself” and decided to build my own custom dollhouse to represent the concept of the album.
Somewhere between all the writing, reflecting, creating, and building tiny rooms in a dollhouse, this album came to life.
It's called “House of Vu”
I’ve created a YouTube series as part of the album rollout where I was able to document the entire process visually.
This is a concept album that tells a story of my journey of coming home to myself. The first single “So Lost” drops June 26, 2026.
