Meet Sasha Jolie | Singer/Songwriter, Model, Actress & Nursing Student

We had the good fortune of connecting with Sasha Jolie and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Sasha, what led you to pursuing a creative path professionally?
I’ve always had an interest in music and fashion. When I was 8 years old, I had taught myself how to harmonize. I would be in my room just singing and learning lyrics to many different songs. My mother had bought me one of those cassette recorders for Christmas and I would sing on it. I mean, I would spend hours just practicing and writing. I knew that I wanted to be an artist. With fashion, I grew up watching my mother sew a lot. You’d think that part of my house had a fabric store in it haha there were patterns, fabric and vintage fashion magazines. That is where my interest peaked. I think with modeling it’s something that I’ve always wanted to do so as a young adult I just went for it. I love fashion and having my own style. I eventually would like to design my own clothing. I started acting this year as well. My creativity makes me unique and it is apart of who I am. I want to share it. Never limit yourself!

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
As an artist I feel that you’re unique. That’s the beauty in the creativity of being a singer but more so a songwriter. As an artist I want to make music that will make people feel. When I write music, i use either my personal experiences or ones of which I’ve heard of or scenarios in which I know that people could listen and relate. That’s what I consider good music. Music is like therapy. When you’re down you want to listen to something that you can relate to and it helps! When you’re happy you want to listen to something more upbeat. I consider myself to be a jack of all trades. I am excited for a lot. I wont spoil too much but, I’ll say that I am excited for the end of this year and the beginning of 2023. I’ve been working really hard with my modeling career, I am excited to release music and the release of a few films that I have acted in this year. It’s very surreal to think that 2 years ago I was not even close where I am today. I am very thankful. I started off by shooting with many different photographers and working with casting agencies. I built up my modeling portfolio and through modeling I had the opportunity to meet people in the music industry. Networking has done a lot for me as well. I started recording and performing. I just kept going and I continue to keep going. I learned that you have to chase after your passions, goals and dreams and make them a reality. When you work hard you begin to see a positive outcome.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
If my best friend was visiting the area, I would take them to my favorite place to go in Philadelphia which is Penns landing. There is always a cool festival and it has such a beautiful waterfront. We would then go to john’s roast pork in Philly to get a cheesesteak. If in New York though it would probably be the Brooklyn bridge but at night. The skyline and vibes are everything amazing.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I want to give a shoutout and a thank you to God for everything and always being there for me. My parents, & mother always going above and beyond for me & having an influence on my love for music and fashion. My twin sister who literally is my best friend. My sister is so supportive. Since I was performing in high school at talent shows she has and still to this day is always out there supporting me. All of my family and friends that have been so supportive I greatly appreciate you all.
