Hi Angelina, please tell us a little about you?
I’m a pop singer songwriter and I’m super thrilled to get to follow my music dreams every day.
Who influenced you and why did you choose to make music?
I was influenced by various artists such as Mariah Carey , Celine Dion , Thalia , Britney Spears etc , although I always knew that this is my purpose in life since I started creating melodies and singing since I was 4.
Tell us about your new single “Private Paradise?”
It’s a pop song that has vibes like Blinding Lights / Weeknd meeting Midnight Sky /Miley Cyrus. I worked with multi- Grammy winning producer Robert Cutarella for this project and I’m so pumped we got to celebrate the release of this record in New York overlooking my Billboard in Times Square. Btw my fans are the best for making that day so special for me since they kept popping up at Times Square to support me.
What is fun and rewarding about what you do? And what’s not?
The fun is def the support of my fans and performing live for them which I love! I write and share my music creations with the world and it’s so sweet when they interact and listen to my music! What’s not fun part is not having the time to spend with my fans and other things I like to do bc I’m an independent artist and I do pretty much everything on my own.
What are the five things you can’t live without?
My phone
My mic
My laptop
Shopping (especially for shoes and clothes)

What book should every entrepreneur read?
I’m not sure for others but for me I’d have to say listening to my manager, Paul Insinna, is like listening to the best entrepreneurial audiobook.
What is the toughest decision you had to make in the last few months?
Well I’m still debating if I should make a trip to my homeland in Greece this year. I haven’t been there for a few years now and I know my family really misses me. Thing is I get super hectic with my work; my shows etc and time flies. Although for when I decide to go there, I already have set up some cool projects to do as well lol including live performances at Mykonos etc. I never stop working even at vacay smh.
Any loves other than music?
I love acting, dancing and playing basketball and European handball. I have awards and medals in all the above activities. Also enjoy swimming too.
If you could meet someone living or dead, who would it be and why?
My grandmas.. I’ll keep it there.. they both passed away but I still see them in my dreams and feel their love always.
