A little about me... Sometimes people wait their whole life to find out what their whole purpose is, and that is music for me.
I grew up in a performing family... my mom was a professional actress and my dad was a business man that also did some print modeling and commercials. Age at 12 I auditioned for Mighty Ducks and landed a major role as one of the Mighty Ducks, Tammy Duncan. I like to refer to the character as "the one that figured skated and shot the goal." Then people remember that character.
I enjoyed acting, but it wasn't the end all be all for me.
I went to college and graduated with a Minor in Music. I wanted to "be practical" and have a Communication major so I could actually do something in my field.
I wanted to record a demo in college and 4 different times there were circumstances that stopped it. When I took a look at it it really felt like I was forcing the issue and it just wasn't "my time."
So, I put it away and said that I was going to trust God on it when He wanted me to do it. There was just something inside me that felt like when it was the right time I would be able to write my own lyrics and music... that felt weird to me because I was never able to do that my entire life... I was trained on the piano... so to "make up" songs wasn't very structured or natural to me.
Well, around March or April of 2006 I started getting lyrics in my head and when I would go to the piano these tunes would come out! All of my music are my originals from this new found gift.
I hope you enjoy it and let it speak to you in whatever way it does. I hope it moves you because these stories were the stories that I felt needed to be told.

HAHA!! :) I'm trying to find the "Gingle All The Way" clip. Haven't seen that one in a while. I bought my old co-workers at Lucasfilm THX a TURBO MAN doll for the office when it came out! :)
Cannot wait to hear you sing in Savage on Friday. Angela has the day off so she will be there too! Bring 2 shirts - I want to buy them and wear them around to advertise you!
Totally cool that you're singing the national anthem on friday, I'm there in spirit from Australia :) Hope it all goes wonderfully! What have you been up to lately?
