ABOUT ME
Emanating from my operatic roots, my performances and compositions create stories inspired by my life and the composers whose music I grew up adoring.
The heartbreaking denial of my professionally encouraged adolescent dream of becoming an opera star has fueled a later-in-life composition and performance career pursuit that is relentless.
I relish performing!
And my recently discovered love for composing has only added fuel to my artistic fire.
