Roots

born and raised in a small town, Ukiah, nestled in Northern California, surrounded by the Redwoods and wine country. Since 2013, I’ve called Florida home, with currently living on the Space Coast, embracing new experiences and opportunities.

Music Journey 

Music has been a passion of mine since childhood. At eight years old, I would sing for hours in my room, and by ten, I was writing my own lyrics. Much of my youth was spent performing, whether dancing on stage or singing in various choirs.

Fast-forward to 2023, I began developing my lyrics and creating my own songs. By 2025, I had refined my production methods and completed several albums. As the sole production team, songwriter, and vocal artist for all my songs, this journey has been deeply personal. Each song tells a story—whether it’s something I’ve experienced, someone I’ve met, or an encounter I’ve had. Every song comes from the heart and is rooted in truth.

Family & Community

While music is a true passion, my number one priority is being a mother to my son. He is my buddy and my biggest supporter, and I am truly lucky to have him in my life. I strive to teach him that he can achieve anything he sets his mind to. I am also blessed with loving parents who have always supported me with all my endeavors. 

By day, I am dedicated to helping communities through workforce development and upskilling. There is nothing more rewarding than knowing you can make a difference in someone’s life. 

Mission

I hope my music inspires others and that people can relate to what I write. My goal is for my raw emotions and honest stories to resonate with listeners.  Music is my own form of therapy but I hope it helps with healing, uplifting and bring joy into your life like it does mine. 

Gratitude

Thank you to all who selflessly serve as first responders. To those who are Veterans and Active Military as well as their families, I am deeply grateful to all who sacrifice for our nation, and communities. I pray for your protection and safety.
