My love of music started very early. When I was a baby my mom would play Elvis records while I toddled around in the living room. As soon as the music started, I would stop whatever baby adventure I was on, crawl to the nearest coffee table, pull myself up to my feet, and begin shaking my diaper to the beat!

When I was 10 years old, my vocal coach sent a blind audition tape to the 1997 Oake National Children's Honors Choir with the Greater Baltimore Youth Orchestra in Baltimore, Maryland. I was the only child from my hometown in Texas to be accepted and was one of 143 children nation-wide chosen to perform with this choir. It was a huge honor and a lot of fun. Since then, I have sung in several school and church choirs and have held several solo performances through out South Texas.

My college major is vocal music education. I live with my parents and with my younger brother, Jarrett. I love animals and spending time with my friends. I also enjoy dancing and modeling. I have danced with The Dance Studio, the Rock Star Dance Studio and the Millennium Dance Complex. I have modeled for Infinity Models and Talent, and Cutting Edge Marketing and Promotions. I have also been a model for Entourage, After Dark, G4-TV, Street Dreams, Aquage and a few others.

Most of all Music is my life and Singing is my passion!
