I'M AN EXTRODINARY MACHINE !

About Me

In every blessing there is a lesson, so pretty much every day I'm blessed.God has saved me many times and I am forever grateful to him.I'm a person of many colors,many talents, many insights,and many changes.I don't even have myself figured out yet, but I love trying to. By the age of 20 I had toured around the country as an entertainer, danced for every bay area known dance recording artist.(see RESUME). For awhile I made some well blessed cash as a Jennifer Lopez impersonator and was a 1 night headlinging act at Las Vegas "Ceasars". This lead me to choreograph for an amazing Michael Jackson impersonator who was the Star of Lake Tahoe's looongest running "Horizon hotel and casino" Cabaret show.(ICON Productions). I have had the privilage to sing on the WB's "Queen Latifah Show" and won 2nd place. (Thank you Dana). I also did a brief stint as a "NBA Warriors Girl", however after a couple of rehearsals with the girls, I came down with a life treatening illness and unfortunatly that gig particular gig came to an end. When I made the team I was up against over 400 female dancers..(p.s. thanks Coach Shelby..I hope I spelled your name right..it's been so long). I also selected the DANCE Team for the first and only season on FOX's "XFL" out of about 300 girls! (They said that we'd be "only dancing during halftime", but the "read between the lines" part about "interacting with the Wrestlers" resulted in me leaving before I signed the printed line!) By 25 I was one of the Top FEMALE Hip Hop Dancers in the bayarea. By 26 I had started my own practice as a vocal/choreographer performance instructor starting the first three years at "ABC Music" here in the East Bay. It was a PLEASURE to work with so many talented teens from Vallejo, Benicia, Napa & Concord! (Many of my students are STILL rockin it to this day! GO KIDDIES!!) One of my most important accopmplishes is my involvement with MTV's Truelife documentary about Bi-Polar. I was also on "Mtv's" All Summer Long "Global Grove" and danced for a Latin Recording Artist "Angelina" on "MTV BRASIL" and "MTV CANADA". Some Choreographers I have worked with are: Ronnie Reddick, Cory "Action" Harrison, Jerry Slaughter, Jessie Santos, David Collier, Alan Frias, Gary Kendall, Jasin A., CelDanz, Mappy, and so many taalented others. I've also played with several bands in the the east bay,northbay,and I am now trying to do my "thang" in the southbay with different bands. (I Love to play and perform with people WHO LOVE WHAT THEY DO and inspire me to STEP UP MY GAME ONE MORE NOTCH!) I am a working performer& musician and I am proud of this in this day and age. I have a manager and his code nane is "kurprise" and he is none of your buisness unless it becomes business. I am availible for piano and voice lessons (22 an hour for piano, 25 an hour for voice coaching). I studied under JAZZ Vocalist Extrodinare RAZZ KENEDY who studied under one of my vocal hero's BOBBY MCFARIN! ANY recording artists that need a choreographer, I can ASSIST you for a HEALTHY, reasonable fee....or at least a reasonable TRADE of TRADES. =) ANY SOLID CHOREOGRAPHER CAN "CREATE TO ANYTHING" SO I CAN WORK WITH ANY TYPE OF MUSIC. I'm in school studying Jounalism and Theater and how to rule the world. I may know alot of people because of my past however I really have only a palmfull of friends who are sooo delightfull and they are my family.(And quite talented I might add!!) So I will leave you with this snazy quote..... NO ONE CAN SING YOUR SONG, DANCE YOUR DANCE, OR WRITE YOUR STORY....Except...huh...YOU!!! (I added that last part).

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” Here is something else that is brillant ; "Life is a dance of opposites that envolves disstruction, rebirth, pain, and joy."Mar 5 2007 7:56A
