About Me

I am a singer-songwriter who was raised all over. My influences in music range from spending time in Memphis as a kid along Beale Street to flamenco and classical guitar that I learned about as a child, living in Spain. I also am influenced by native music as I am of Choctaw descent, especially the drums. I currently own 10 guitars and I love to listen to and play just about any type of music! I just built a recording studio into my house and am now learning how to use it, go figure! ;o) Weekends that I'm not relaxing or recording music in my studio at home, I'm either watching a race at a NASCAR or NHRA track (my dad has a hot rod), volunteering at Victory Junction Gang Camp, watching SEC football, perfecting my bellydancing skills, or catching up on my fishing or bowling! I'm also a beginner at golf and have been fully indoctrined by the boys as to how to properly drive a golf cart, really darn fast! ;o) I also love traveling and being outdoors, so Iceland has become one of my favorite places to go. I love the Aurora Borealis! Photography is another passion of mine, so you'll find many pictures that I have taken on this site. Prior to living in Maryland, I completed my Bachelors of Science in Communication Disorders and Masters of Education in Autism/Emotional Conflict at Auburn University, War Eagle! My "real job" is that I am the mainstream coordinator for a middle school and high school program for teenagers with emotional disabilities (such as Autism, Tourette's Syndrome, ADHD, etc.) I currently share my humble abode with two adorable ferrets that I adopted from a shelter, Glacier and Avalanche.
