In 2007 I started writing songs on a whim or inner inspiration. Suddenly I had enough songs to want to do something with them. Beyond starting to perform the songs, I decided to make a CD of the songs which became the album/CD, Taking Flight. Performing the songs then became a passion to share the songs and grow musically. On the musical journey, I decided to learn guitar and then wrote some songs on guitar. Once again, the recording bug bit and I made a second album, Coins Tossed, released 2019. I continue to perform and share my work and covers as a solo performer.

I've been performing as a Singer/Songwriter in the Western New York area since 2007 including at festivals, coffee houses, cafes, arts organizations, church events, music events and farmers' markets. ’Writing, performing and sharing music with you is a joy and passion and a big part of my life.

My music background includes participating in choirs in New York State and Colorado, attending open mics and enjoying playing music with others in informal settings. My music style has often been compared to singer songwriters of the '70s, like Joni Mitchell or Carol King. I like that idea of a troubadour with simple instrumentation and the vocal being the element of focus. (2025)
