I was born in Augusta, GA on August 2, 1983 and I have been singing ever since I could talk! My career started when I turned 16. I was attending Aiken High School in SC and I had just moved to a new place with my dad. I went into the bus office to get assigned to a new bus and instead of finding the secretary I ran into Melvin Blakely....my soon to be producer and owner of Westblake Productions/ One Mind Music...what is a recording producer doing in a highschool bus office, you ask? I have no idea, but I'll take it! Everything happened so fast after that. Before I knew it I was recording my own music and loving every minute of it. I hope that you guys love my music as much as I loved recording it!

My husband Andy! With out you I would have given up hope! I love you baby! Thanks for all the support and love throughout the years and always sticking by me!
Melvin Blakely! I could not have made it this far without you. You have taught me so much and the songs that are on this profile never would have been possible with you and your genius composition and writing skills!
My Dad! Without your love and support I would have never been able to grasp my recording opportunity! Thanks for believing in me and letting me go for my dream!
My Friends! Thank you guys for all the support you have shown...with out you guys my music wouldn't go as far as it has!
My Fans! I hope you like my work and thanks for listening! Remember to pass the word around because with out you guys the music industry that I hope to be a part of someday would not exist!
And last but not least! (I always save the best for last! lol)
