About Me

Hi you!
Thanks for stopping by my site! I hope that you enjoy what you hear =)

UPDATE (2/16/08):

Hi friends!
I went ahead and took down my songs except for Wildflowers and I Miss You. I had put them up temporarily for folks to vote on which songs I should sing during my audition at Rocketown for Band With A Mission .
I apologize it's been nearly two weeks and I haven't updated how it went!
It was an AMAZING experience! My first time to the Music City! I had been nervous up until the day of the audition and then I wasn't even a little bit nervous. It was completely God -- it's all about Him and it's not about me (I'm actually reading Max Lucado's book right now entitled just that...)
My Mom went with me on this trip to support me and it was so good to spend time with her. We enjoyed touring around the city and meeting up with good friends we haven't seen in some time!
I got some really good feedback, which blessed and encouraged me at the same time. I am working on some of the suggestions I was given and hoping to write some new music here soon as well.
I am not entirely certain what happens from here but I probably won't hear anything back for a couple of months!
Thanks to all of you for your support... be sure to check back soon for updates!
I am a girl who loves her God, loves her family and friends, and loves her music. Those are my passions, in that order. I have been singing since I was little and made up my first song about an owie on my leg when I was about 4. Mom says I used to take leotards and put them on my head (so I could pretend I was a singer with long hair - because I apparently thought all singers had long hair... haha). My passion for music, playing piano, singing, and writing songs has escalated throughout the years and brought me to where I am at now: seeing a dream of my childhood coming to fruition. I want to make a difference with the musical gift God has bestowed on me. We are all created in the image of God and I want the songs I write and sing to reflect that. I have come a long way musically and have a ways to continue growing but that is the beauty, that we don't stay where we are but continue on in the journey of life.
I will be working on some music with Alpha Studios and hope to have some studio quality recorded songs up soon. Please feel free to leave me feedback on what you hear, add me as a friend, and continue to check back for updates!
Have a smile, it's on me...

So... I decided it was time to make a MySpace music profile.  I've been putting it off due to the fact that I don't have any good recordings to put on the site.  Hopefully that will be chang...
