A BLACK GIRL WHO PLAYS THE VIOLIN.......WHAT!!

About Me

I'm just a girl from Toronto who likes to sing, act and dance. I've done some major theatre shows like The Lion King, but I'm starting to take some time to focus on my sound and my music. I studied classical violin for 17 years at the Royal Conservatory of Music, and then went to Queen's University and left with a double major in music and film. So here I am in this thing called life trying to create this thing called MUSIC!!
