You Matter. Love Wins. Rock is life!
I am driven by my faith and a quest for truth.
My goal is to create soulful rock that authentically and boldly speaks to the struggles and the joys of life.
I try to infuse my lyrics with an energy and a fighting spirit that inspires hope.
At two years old, I first played my mom's guitar. I've been making music ever since.
I have been inspired by a diverse range of artists, from Michael Jackson to Prince to The Police.
I blending these influences into my own style that I call "chocolate rock."
Nashville was my home for 20 years - that's where I polished my skills.
Now, I'm grateful for my home here in Portland, Oregon, where I get to make music and jewelry and amazing community!
I hope you enjoy the music!
