I’ve been singing as far back as I can remember.  As a young girl my first experience working with a private music teacher began with piano lessons which later led to guitar lessons.  In my late teens I toured professionally as a vocalist in a top 40 band where I began exploring singing in different genres. 

After years of performing covers I started writing original songs and later went on to record and release three CDs.  As a performing songwriter I found my home for many years working with Sons Of The Never Wrong from Chicago.  While living in Chicago I created show cases for local artists and later, following a move to NY, I coordinated an open mic. specifically for my voice students.

I've received grants from the following:

• Boulder County Arts Alliance (BCAA) Martha Tate Thomas Fund for Artist Grants 
• City of Lafayette/NEW Cares Grant
• Saratoga Program for Arts Funding (SPAF) a regrant
  program from NY State Council on the Arts (NYSCA)
