I never thought of myself as much of a music lover until I was about 14. I listened to music on occasion, but not nearly as much as I do now. When I was in my early teens though, my parents started getting me some music lessons -- at first they were ukulele lessons, and then piano lessons once I started becoming more engaged with music. At the same time, I started exploring music more heavily. I began listening to music from almost every decade and genre, and I still pretty much do this today!
