About Me

If I haven't actually met you yet, please send a message before a friend request.

I come from a family of musicians. I learned how to read by scanning album liner notes. I am a music fan and so became a music performer. I fell in love with choral singing at around 8 years and it was all uphill from there. Heavy involvement with my high school show choir proved that music would always be in the forefront. Instead of the long hours of studying medicine, which I had thought about, I completed a journey of obtaining a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music. After college, I learned even more about my voice and collaborating with talented instrumentalists by singing with the Funk/Soul band, "Soulfinger" for a few years. They went on to become the successful outfit now known as, Orgone. I then moved on to hone my skills as the frontperson for the Top 40/Latin band, "Satisfaction Unlimited." I enjoyed the experience playing casuals and weddings with them for three years. Currently, you can see me around town playing gigs with my Rock cover band, overTime. (http://myspace.com/weareovertime) I also do studio session work for television shows and I am a professional caroler. Recently I appeared singing on the hit ABC TV show, Modern Family. I'm not looking for fame; I simply enjoy making a living doing what I love to do and using what I know, while still learning along the way. I just love so many kinds of music, as long as there is passion in it. For that reason, I am willing and able to sing backup for any artist as well so that I may continue to perform all different genres and travel the world.
Feel free to go to my band's website for more info and sound and video clips. Nice to meet you!

Holiday Pet Peeves

I hate it when people record holiday songs and end a song with a really slow instrumental refrain of 'Jingle Bells'. Also, MY FAVORITE THINGS from The Sound of Music is NOT a Christmas Song people!&nb...
