You always mention being self-taught. I'm wondering how this applies to the voice. I sang from the time I was 2 on my own, got lessons in college, and then taught voice for years. I'm wondering what your process was like. I feel like your tone is really good and you have consistent technique. I like modeling my vowels off of yours!  When teaching yourself singing, did you ever research vocal technique, or is it moreso you just practiced until you found what felt good?
if i ever researched vocal technique, i would often find that the advice seemed impossible to consciously implement. occasionally i might find a tip that's useful, but usually it's just things to feel guilty about not being able to figure out how to do
