Writings and Collaborations: I got my first guitar two years ago, bought myself a Guitar For Dummies handbook and basically taught myself how to play. As soon as I knew a three chord progression I was writing songs. I have a small collection of songs that I've written, however, none of which have been published or recorded as of yet. I would love to have the opportunity to collaborate with other writers in the future. My husband and I have written a collection of music as well, and has become quite popular in our fellowship and one will be featured on my upcoming project.

Publishing Company: The company that I worked with for my country demo was Tribute to Momma Publishing Co. out of Nashville. I am currently working with an Agent to record my next album, cross over to mainstream pop and Praise and Worship.

Record Company: Independent (however, my goal is to be signed to have that support behind me.) HOW LONG have I been in the game? (had a developing interest ): Age 5- my first public performance was on our church platform, where I sang my rendition of At The Cross, accompanied by my mother who sang harmony. From there on in we were the entertainment  feature of family gatherings and special occasions.

WHAT'S GOING ON NOW?!!!

I had the opportunity to go to Nashville in August 2005 and record at SAE (School of Audio Engineering). My first single called Loving a Good Man was released on a Ladies Truckers Compilation album with Sunshine Entertainment Group in June of 2006. This CD can be found in Walmarts across Canada as well as selected Truck Stops. Another one of my songs called "Get on Board" has been featured on a Christian Compilation Album through Indevo Records. Indevo is in direct relation with and promotes artists with Fervant/Word Records. This compilation is a tool used for promotion and exposure for myself and other fellow musicians featured on the album through a special program being offered to Christian artists through Indevo Records. The album can be purchased through each featured artist or ordered from musichristian.com. Since my Nashville recording project, I've done a cross over to pop/worship I have been working with a recognized vocal coach in Vancouver, BC, in preparation for my upcoming project.

Goals and Ambitions: My personal relationship and Faith in Jesus Christ is my life and the source for all my strength. All honor and glory belong to Him in everything I do. I  know that He has blessed me with this talent of singing and He has prepared a way for me to use this gift through the power of His Holy Spirit to show His love and bring revival to a dying world. I want to be continually obedient to His calling and do what I see my Father doing. I believe God has made me to sing and Im excited to see where He is taking me. 1 Peter4:10-11 As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belongs the glory and dominion forever and ever.
