About Me

I'm mainly a self taught artist, though I did study at Berklee College Music in order to develop my skills and knowledge of music theory. There, I majored in Music Performance and Songwriting and received my Bachelor's Degree following four years of study. My main interest is in the singing and songwriting aspect of music, as I find the creative process the most fulfilling part of being a musician. I've been involved in performing and composing music since the day I could hold a pencil and a microphone in my left hand, but left the music industry the end of 2000 to help care for my stepfather after he fell terminally ill with lung cancer.

I have only recently returned to my music after a 6 year hiatus of working as a floral buyer here on the east coast, and following the death of my NUMBER ONE fan, my beloved stepfather, who, sadly, lost his battle with cancer on January 19th, 2001. It's been a long and winding road for me, but after much soul searching, and several detours, I've decided to get my life back on track and pursue my life-long dream of becoming a professional singer/songwriter, not just for myself, but to honor my stepfather's memory, and all the support he had given me over the years. I truly believe I would not be who I am today without him.

I am currently in the studios recording a personally inspired pop/rock album entitled, "After the Boy."
