About Me
At 13 years old, I was singing to myself in the corridor at Pauline Hughes Middle School in Burleson, Texas, when a teacher asked me to consider joining the choir. Nobody really realized I had a talent until I got in there. My teacher really pushed me since I was behind everyone else who had been doing it since 4th grade. From there on, I had a niche. My classical training through the choir was, fundamental to me being able to use my voice and adapt it to different styles of music. I developed quickly and before long was wooing audiences in state and regional competitions, whilst earning a living as a waitress, pharmacy assistant, movie theatre and even at the zoo! It was my best friend Jessica who was determined for me not to give up and suggested I try out for American Idol. I knew nothing about it, I went and tried out for fun and here I am!
