Since the age of three, when she picked up her grandmother's soap microphone and started singing into it, Leena Ingegneri has considered her destiny to be in music. "I’ll never forget the first time I realized I wanted to be a singer/songwriter. I was at my grandparents' house watching MTV, and Sheryl Crow’s ‘All I Wanna Do’ music video was playing. I wanted so bad to grow up and be Sheryl. I was in awe of this pretty lady, standing on a sidewalk, singing as she played her guitar."
