I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm a bassist and vocalist, based in Leander, Texas. I'm a married, working mom who decided that if she was going to play music, she'd better get busy before she got old and grey enough for "the home"! (And I'll probably tick off the orderlies, turning up my amp too loud, when I'm in one.) ;-)My husband, Steve, is the drummer for 8Ball Down. He's an *awesome* drummer, and my best friend. After 15 years, I still think he's the hottie-est!!! Listen to his band at http://www.myspace.com/8balldown.Although my former bands are no longer actively gigging, we still get together to jam every now and then. Check out The Knowbodys at http://www.myspace.com/knowbodys, and The Vista Chix at http://www.myspace.com/vistachix. My most-recent project was with Jul & The Chrome Wheels (http://www.myspace.com/thechromewheels). I am no longer with them, and am looking forward to new projects.When I'm not playing music, I enjoy spending time with my kids. My little girl really loves animals, and has decided she wants to be a veterinarian. My son is an athlete and sk8er. He's always been interested in aircraft and flight, and is planning to pursue a career as a pilot or aircraft mechanic.
