About Me


Myspace Contact TablesMusically...I was born in Kenosha, WI. I started singing harmony at seven. I am mostly a singer but I also pretend to play a little guitar, mandolin, fiddle, dulcimer just to amuse myself. At age 16 along with my sister Beth and Jon Peik we had a show at Six Flags Great America. My family won the trio/quartet singing contest at the Smithville Jamboree. We also traveled playing shows around the midwest and made a few c.d.s . I graduated in May '05 with a degree of Bachlor of Arts with my studies consisting of theatre. I sang on track 13 of The Daughters of Bluegrass's newest project BLUEGRASS BOUQUET available from the artists or www.cdbaby.com.
