I am an old fashioned girl. I still want music to be transporting and meaningful like it was for me as a child. I knew as a three-year-old, and announced to my family, that I would be a singer when I grew up. A girl on a mission, some things never change. My earliest memories are of playing records on my first little stereo with these giant headphones. I was barely eight when I was singing my lungs out to Pat Benatar not realizing everyone in the house could hear me. I'd wait till I thought they were asleep, and every night I got into trouble for being up singing past midnight. I wrote and recorded my first song, brilliantly entitled "Only You and Me", when I was thirteen. Looking back, it's actually a good little pop song. I am forever grateful to my eternally supportive voice teacher, Paul Adkins, for seeing to it that I got into the studio and made that recording. He even sang back-up. I have never looked back, and although I am flattered to be asked to write for some very well-known artists, I am happiest writing for myself. I hope there's a little girl out there tonight who is blasting my CD into her headphones way past her bedtime. A few highlights for me are: making this record with amazing musicians/engineers whose collective credits include: Sheryl Crow, David Bowie, Counting Crows, Fefe Dobson, Paul Simon, NY Dolls etc. My song, Watch Me Fly, being the end title cut for the feature film Gray Matters starring Heather Graham and Sissy Spacek. It will also be featured in the trailer of Fox Feature film The Redemption of Sarah Caine due out this fall. Singing backgrounds for Michael Jackson at Madison Square Garden --- I got to play at the legendary Bottom Line in NYC right before they closed, it was so cool!

Just read the wonderful article about you in the NY Post for 11/3/13 (my sister sends me anything she reads about Celine Dion). Listened to your two songs on Celine's new album last night! WOW OH WOW! Congratulations! As a mother of a musician, I know what this means to you and the stars are aligning for you my dear!!!!! I'm going to forward this youtube to all of my friends! I was a little surprised to see Myspace mentioned, hah! I hope you are on Facebook too! Sending big best wishes from California to you and your husband. Have wonderful holidays! P.S. To anyone else reading this, the songs' names are: "Thankful", and "Always Be Your Girl." Celine's new album is "Loved Me Back To Life."

I absolutely love this song. She answers e-mails individualy as well. What a woman. And yes, she has a splendid voice and is beautiful. Do I need to say that, though?

Heard this on the background music at a restaurant and loved it. Figured out a couple of lyrics and found her on the web. Love her stuff so far!!
