In an exclusive interview with FAME magazine, Kirsten Collins discussed her musical journey, detailing her beginnings in Calgary, Canada, where her family's musical background and the harsh winters spurred her creativity from a young age. She shared anecdotes of her early exposure to music, including singing at 18 months and performing in front of 5,000 people at the age of five, which paved the way for her eventual move to Los Angeles at 14. This move was a turning point, allowing her to work with Grammy-nominated producers, achieve a double platinum song in K-pop, and participate in significant projects, including an unexpected trip to Korea that led to a career milestone with two songs placed for the group aespa.

The highlight of Collins' career came with the "Nova of Light" project, which will archive her work on the moon alongside icons like Elvis Presley and Bob Marley, symbolizing a full-circle moment from her childhood song, "Take Me To The Moon." She expressed awe and gratitude for this honor, viewing it as part of a larger journey that blends personal loss, creativity, and a mission to inspire others through music. Her collaboration with producer Andrew Lane, particularly on the track "Sunshine," exemplifies her approach to music as a blend of personal expression and collective creativity, aiming to leave a legacy that transcends her own time and resonates with a universal message of hope and resilience.
