Growing up awkward and shy, singing and writing songs was the only way Rozella knew how to express herself and she took the brave step to pursue the thing that she loved the most few years ago.

When she first got the news, Rozella said her first thoughts were “not only am I working with the most supportive and talented band, I am also surrounded by the most amazing people. It feels so great to know that people genuinely appreciate your hard work and your music. This is only the beginning and I really appreciate the opportunity.”

“It’s been such an amazing journey and I am so grateful for everything. My intention when I joined Tiger Jams wasn’t about winning prizes, it was about pushing myself out of my comfort zone and proving to myself that I can do this. I strongly believe that if you desire something, you have to find the courage to pursue it” she declared.
