Mother Grandmother Singer, Songwriter, Entertainer Extraordinaire!

The youngest of four, I began singing at the age of seven—first in church, then in the mirror alongside my sisters. My musical journey started in gospel, and soon expanded across borders as I performed the soulful sounds of Motown, Jazz, and R&B.

To me, music is medicine for the soul—a divine vibration that heals, uplifts, and connects. It’s a blessing, as essential as the air we breathe. I thank God for music, because I couldn’t walk away from it even if I tried!

I am the lead vocalist for “Jammetry”, a dynamic Jazz Fusion group performing across the nation and spreading joy, rhythm, and inspiration wherever we go.
