Vaughn A Paradise exists as an artist, author, licensed mental health therapist, and public speaker. Their work orbits the deep intersection of art and mental health- a constellation spanning cliniical ractice, live performance, and speaking presentations. Paradise creates from the belief that art can hold what language often cannot. Whether in therapy, on stage, in the classrrom, or in studio, they move through the world asking: What if we could see the final image- and then build the reality to match?

Forged from the chaos and catharsis of Kesha, La Dispute, and Edgar Allan Poe, Paradise's sonic evolution took root in the post-hardcore and alternative metal scenes. From 2019-2025, they fronted the band Alice's Escape. In 2025, Paradise signed to Amunson Audio Publishing launching their next era: Paradise Misplacedx. Their solo work has drawn comparisons to Ashnikko, Hollywood Undead, Zero 9:36, and Vana.

With this new era came shattered galaxies, melted minds, fallen pantheons-- and the birth of something new.

The Nothing opened itself to them and proved itself everything
