I grew up to the sounds of swing, jazz and gospel and found myself on stage at a pretty young age and fell in love with singing before I can remember even talking.

Over the years I have been in theater, gospel choirs, and even a few struggling bands. I chased the music dream for a few years in my 20s and then one thing led to another and I found myself 10 years away from my last performance.

This will be my first time playing out in over over 10 years, and the first time it will be just me and a guitar. I'm alternating between fear and excitment, and I just hope that those that see me play enjoy the experience as much as I hope to.

Music has always been a great inspiration and joy in my life. And I'm taking this time to make it part of my life again.
