Here is a bit o' bio: Born and raised in MI. I started writing at about age 12. mostly in poem. I didn't know how to verbalize my feelings. It has always been easier to write them down. I got my first guitar when I was 8 but never knew how to play until I was 24. I started out wanting to be a singer. I learned to put the poems and my guitar noise together when I was 18. Voila singer/songwriter.When I was 22 I became a Karaoke Dj. When I was 23 I became one of the best known Karaoke dj's and worked at the biggest night club in the city. I had many radio spots and was known as the karaoke goddess! No Lie!!! At the MI state fair in 1997, I was one of the pre-opening acts for Diamond Rio. I moved to nashville in Oct. 1998. My first professional public performance in Nashville was at the famous Tootsies. Country legend, Dell Reeves, invited me on stage and said " Hey every body! I'd like to introduce a friend of mine.......Yes major highlight of my life! I used to perform at the world known BlueBird Cafe on Monday nights and play downtown Nashville on other various nights. Grand Ole Opry was the place to be, Especially when you're backstge on a Friday night!!! Through a friend of a friend, I got the hook up. Charlie Louvin of the Louvin brothers, was a friend of my friend. I hung out with Little Jimmy Dickens ( jimmy! my face is up here!) and the wonderful Porter Wagner. I met Vince Gill, Amy Grant, John Berry, Diamond Rio (again), Holly Dunn, Pam Tillis Lorrie Morgan, Reba McEntire, Brooks and Dunn, Daryl Dodd,Mark Chestnut, Joe Diffie, and SOOOOO many more people. I took a few years off to get caught up on my bills. I've worked in numerous resturants as a waitress. It was at one of those jobs I met "the singer". you see, everybody who waits tables in Nashville is the next country legend. Or so we think. This girl was in the back of the resturant one night talking about her producer and what an awesome singer she was. So to prove it she starts singing. She was ok, But Damn if it didn't make me remember why I left home! I got to talking with her and said I had a song for her to consider to put on her cd. She invited me to meet her producer/songwriter friend, Rick. This is where the play button kicks in after being on pause for so long! Since then I have recorded a full 11 song Cd, Titled The Beginning, and I am currently working on another. Ill be in the recording studio in late February 2008 to start work on my second cd. I have had airplay in Sydney, Australia with dj Dukerider. Also in the England area on the Monday mix with Emma Cherry. And in Northern Ireland on aiiradio with dj Yorkie aka Andy aka John! I was the Featured artist! On Indie Charts, on Jan. 24th 2008, I won the Battle on the bands contest. I was against all genres of music! I was the featured artist on the website theouterpost .com!
