About Me

I'm a child of a preacher and was placed at the pulpit to sing my first solo when I was 4. Through out my young life I sang in church and school and when I hit 16 I became a member of the band Adam Again. That amazing and wild run lasted until 2000, believe it or not. I've done 4 solo projects, the one closest to my heart being the last . I moved to Nashville in '94 and in '96 married the love of my life. We recently celebrated our 11th anniversary and are now the proud parents of a 5 year old, sweet & spunky little girl and the jolliest little sack of potatos who is 2 years old. I work in clay and love to sing and pray my path includes both always. Peace.
