Biography

Alas that love beckoned and I felt compelled to answer the call.

The road to this place took many twists and turns but I am finally here.

Inspiration for my music is all around, I am reflecting the world

Music runs deep in my veins, having been born into a family of musicians. My musical journey began at age 11, singing in the local church choir where my mother was the organist. My father, a bass singer with the Spiritualaires Gospel Quartet, recorded albums and toured across the Midwest. Inspired by his legacy, my friends and I formed the Spiritualite Juniors, named after my dad’s group. We had the privilege of performing on the famed Chicago radio station WVON AM 1450, on Sunday mornings, local banquets, and church services. This was just the beginning.


Following in my mother’s footsteps, I landed my first official gig as a church pianist at an early age. As I matured into my teenage years, I started playing in bands and writing my own songs. I played keyboards on my first studio recording session as a teen with a band called Arrival. We recorded two songs, “Four Star Day” and “Just Won’t Happen Until It’s Time,” at Tanglewood Studios in Brookfield, IL, both of which were released on Travelrama Records.


Today, I am writing and producing music as a solo artist, and I love where my journey has brought me. The path has been enriching and fulfilling, allowing me to continue my passion for music and share it with the world.

When I make music it is with you, the listener in mind.
