But if there is one message that MAK shares with her fans, is that through fortitude and perseverance comes success. Today, MAK find herself sharing the stage with the likes of Brett Kissel, Paul Brandt, Jess Moskaluke and others. When the entire world paused during the pandemic, MAK went straight to work.

Her music is built upon a foundation of honesty and authenticity. Hip-hop tinged, mainstream pop catchiness, wraps around lyrics forged through experiences both painful and triumphant. Her vocals are rich and reveal both strength and vulnerability... and it’s resonating. In just 6 short weeks of releasing her debut single Empress and sophomore single Cut Ya Clean, MAK has captured the attention of fans internationally, as well as major labels and heavy hitters in the music industry. Brazil is a current particular hotspot where her debut single Empress is on mainstream radio, and both singles (including the sophomore Cut Ya Clean) are on rotation on MTV Brazil. However, fans and industry in Europe, the US, and of course her home country Canada are also taking notice. MAK is finding herself participating in a flurry of interviews, blogs, podcasts on three continents. “MAK is the kind of artist that doesn't come along too often and if you haven't got her on your radar, you better start learning her name.” Kym Cyr – Editor in Chief, Now And Then Magazine. The debut album, scheduled for release in late fall 2021, was recorded in Calgary and Vancouver, and led by MAK and an exceptional team of music industry powerhouses with multiple awards and industry nominations between them.

After numerous doctors appointments and 7 years later, she was diagnosed with PCOS. She began seeking alternative medicine therapies such as Chinese Doctors, Homeopaths, Naturopaths, Dieticians, and Nutritionists when doctors could only suggest going on birth control to manage her hormones.

Jessica discovered that she couldn't find any user friendly information or videos out there for women with PCOS, especially on Youtube. That's when Jessica Diana was created.

Jessica hopes to spread PCOS awareness, and be a leader in the PCOS community.
