About Me

Myspace Layouts by Pimp-My-Profile.com

I'm a simple girl from St. Louis. I grew up northwest of the city (NoCo for those in the know) in the suburbs. I was always a good student, rule-follower, and involved in school. Yes, I actually liked going to school for the most part. I stayed involved in clubs, activities like choir and theater, and generally hung out with a group of decent kids. After high school, I went to college for a vocal performance degree in central IL. I spent time doing all the things you do in a small college town with not much else going on. I studied, practiced, played my way through 4 years of college and decided to go into the music industry in Nashville, TN after graduation. After about 6 years working and living in Music City, USA, I decided that there was no place like home and made my way back from the south. I now have a pretty cool job where I get to travel and meet lots of different people, a cute little house (back in NoCo once again), and am around the people who love me the most.
