The Jamaica native brought a diverse catalog of songs to the competition stage throughout the season, proving she could do it all. With poise and grace she immediately started her journey by singing an original song OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder wrote for the winner.

In the moments before she was announced the winner, Tessanne Chin thanked Adam Levine (pictured): ‘A better coach for me I could not find.’

Under the tutelage People magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive,” Adam Levine, Chin raced to the finish leaving the other two finalists — Will Champlin and Jacquie Lee — in her musical dust.

During the finale, Chin had the opportunity to sing with one of her musical idols, Celine Dion.

“A better coach for me I could not find,” she told Levine during the final moments before Daly announced her big win. “I thank you every day for choosing me.”

While Chin entered the competition with vocal experience under her belt, she encountered a performance level she’d never known before.

The 28-year-old singer hails from Kingston, Jamaica, where she sang backup for the legendary reggae singer Jimmy Cliff. But she desired a worldly career in music.

During blind auditions, Chin sang the Pink song “Try.” While she later demonstrated her ability to return to her homeland’s sound, the coaches knew she could sing in various categories of music, which included songs by Katy Perry and Whitney Houston.

Levine pushed her to the limit because he believed in her just that much. And although she stood on the brink of those challenges at times, once she touched the stage it was as if magic happened.
