About Me

Born and raised in Bedford a small town in Southern Indiana. I began singing as a young girl. Weekends the family would get together and everyone would gather around the piano to sing a few tunes. Thats where it all began for me. I was involed in chior and Madricals all through High School. I moved from the small town life when I was 15 years old. My family relocated to Florida. Where I finished High School. I had alot of great oppurtunitys come way in Florida. I traveled all over the state and performed. By the grace of god I met some incredible people who have been very big influences in my career. Kristina Allman who took me under her wing and has been a great help with my success.It wasn't until a few years back I really started taking being an artist seriously and decided to try and make a career out of it. I began playing fairs and festivals around Florida and some events in Tennessee.Then competed in the NACMI competion I was competing in 4 catagorys and brought home 2 of 4 awards. Which incluude , co-song writer and duet I completed my first album in early 2006 in New York.With the help of Kristina Allman, Dan Toler and Tony Perinio just to name a few great people who were involved in that project. I then moved to the Nashville area for about a year.Met some incredable muscians and song writers.Shane Iceberg and Shannon Noel who wrote the song "Head Over Heels".We are working towards a second album. "Head Over Heels" is a single off the album. Still working on my music continuously. I have now found my home, in a small town in East TN in the Mountians.Things are moving along great. Watch your calanders there is alot of exciting events to be announced soon. A special thanks to all of my family,the band members, management and all the fans for making all of this possible.
