About Me

I am not just a singer, I entertain. I feel that anyone that comes to my performance deserves a show. I've done the group thing, the band thing, and now I'd like to get into my own thing. What is my own thing you ask???!!! I want to make music that people hear and it triggers memories. I want people to feel my music in their heart and soul. MUSIC IS THE SOUNDTRACK TO LIFE. I just wanna be a part of someone's soundtrack.
