Moved to Austin in May 2006 to pursue my music again after a 2 year break from reality. I've never felt more 'right on' in my life! From friends I've made, loved and lost...i've only grown stronger. From challenges that have turned my world upside down and right side up....my life, my love, my passion-is music-and what i've gone through to get it. I hope to share a little bit of my inspiration with others, it takes a whole lot of heart and soul to bring my music to life! I hope you get a chance to check me out-and see what I'm all about. I'll give you chills, send you smiling home, with a pitter patter in your heart and even some pain in your side....i'm not about to hide this thing called love...any longer....i'm here to share my songs with you and the rest of the world! This is only the beginning...of what great incredible journeys are on the way...Here is a little background from me...Venues Played: -The Roxy, Hillsdale, MI -Ten Pound Fiddle Coffee House, East Lansing, MI -Savarinos, Hillsdale, MI -Schuler Books & Music, Grand Rapids, MI -Peace Rally, Hillsdale Courthouse, Hillsdale, MI -Nashville Music Festival, Ridgetop, TN -O’Henry’s Pub, Limerick, Ireland -The Temple Bar, Dublin, Ireland -Scorz, Nashua, NH -Club Lido-Hillsdale, MI -Freedomfest, Stock’s Park, Hillsdale, MI -Bohemian Rhapsody, Ypsilanti, MI -Skips, Angola, IN -The Annex, Hillsdale, MI -Maxine's, Bastrop, TX -The Ritz, Austin, TX -Cactus Cafe, Austin, TX -Stubb's, Austin, TX -Headhunters, Austin, TX -The Genuine Oyster Bar, Bastrop, TX -Cindy's Hog Wild, Austin, TXAlbums Produced: Moonbeam Kiss(2000), When You’re Feeling This Way(2002), Spirit Brought Me To Life (2006) Bands: Furtherbound, KKayPi Lape, Vear, RootfireIVS School of Music 1982-1989 Oak Park, IL o TELEVISION Jingles for Wonderbread, My Little Pony, & Beanie Weenie. o RADIO Jingles & Public Service Announcements including Bacteen Sunscreen, Nestle Toll-House Cookies, Humane Society, Garfield, Dum-Dum Suckers, Kraft Macaroni & Cheese, and Oscar Meyer. o MUSIC GROUPS Performing & Recording Artists Wildfire & Firefly. o RECORDING Back-up Vocals for Walt Disney Album ‘Rock Around The Mouse.’ THEATER Musical Theater Performance, Choreographer, Stage Hand, Set Designer, Advertisement, Assistant Director, Costume Design, Make-up Artist.Sauk Community Theater Performances 1990-2003 Jonesville, MI : The Music Man, How to Eat Like A Child, The King and I, Oliver, Babes in Arms, The Boyfriend, The Christmas Carol, Joseph & The Technicolor Dreamcoat, Annie, Birdwatching.Columbia College 1997 Chicago, IL Musical Theater PerformanceTrainings include Concert Choir, Chamber Choir, Regional Choir, Ensemble Acting, Improvisation, Dance, Broadcast Journalism, Documentaries & Film, Photography, Art, Painting, Art History, Guitar, and Piano.Vocal, Guitar, and Piano Instruction given to children.
