I was born and raised in Sin City, Las Vegas, NV into a very musical family; having a dad who taught grade school choir and band. It was really cool having someone to look up to who was a musician and teacher of music. Plus, since my dad was a choir teacher, I was guaranteed free vocal training.  ...not a bad deal, right! Growing up through middle school, high school and college, I sang with choirs and performed in solo ensembles, school musicals as well as a couple rock bands that I sang lead for, which definitely made me stronger in my stage presence abilities. Being in a band was a really fun way to perform for kids my own age and get everybody excited and to have a good time!

The main reasons that I love music are: it is my way of releasing stress, cheering me up, connecting with people, and most importantly, my way of giving thanks to the Lord for giving me such a gift. By sharing it with others, I gain a huge amount of happiness that I would never trade for anything in this world.
