My Story

As a kid, I never stopped singing. My mom loved it, my brother hated it, and I couldn’t help it. I would take shamefully long showers while I wrote songs, and then…nothing. I sang them for myself, for my parents, and for my dogs. It wasn’t until the tail end of my college years that I finally picked up a guitar and decided I needed to get my songs out of my head and into the world. Six years later I am still writing (usually on walks now, not in the shower), still learning, and sharing my music with whoever will listen.
