At the age of twenty-seven I have been blessed with an array of gifts; the most profound being Life. In 1999, just six months after my high school graduation I was involved in a car accident that would forever change my life and who I was to become.
Currently living in Nashville, TN --- Music City, I am affiliated with BMI as a writer/composer/publisher ( MusicMoonk Music ); singer-songwriter-musician/poetess/artist.I was born into a family with a strong musical background in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains in southwestern Virginia. Began singing at four years of age, playing the guitar at six, songwriting, and expressing myself through visual art around ten years of age . Having had roots in the styles of bluegrass, country, classic, and southern rock I soon after developed my own sound and playing style. Branching out from a wide variety of musical styles; rock, folk, grunge, world, new age, classical, jazz, blues, r&b, hip-hop, gospel, and trance/electronica/dance.
In high school I began playing a classical guitar style, thus implementing a more sophisticated sound into my compositions. In the 1990's I periodically played bass guitar for my family's bluegrass gospel group around the region, I spent some time in a local rock band in my high school as a lead/rhythm guitarist, songwriter, backup and lead vocalist. In college jazz was one of the major catalysts in my musical and artistic development. Joining the jazz ensemble I gained much experience that helped to boost my playing experience; playing jazz made me ten times the musician I was beforehand. Whilst attending college I joined the Chorus, and had the opportunity of singing behind an major symphony --- twice.
Now with all of that being said let me get to the renaissance of my life, and the soul of the music in which I place the most importance ...
In 1999 I was in a car accident that forever changed my life. Sustaining a severe head injury I was brought back and in a coma for some time. Slept through my eighteenth birthday until I finally awoke in Atlanta's Sheperds Center hospital (God Bless you). Basically jolted backwards to the mental capacity of a toddler I had to re-learn everything; walking, talking, reading, writing, etc. I, along with a music therapist, had to re-teach myself music. It's been a long, hard road but all thanks and praise be to God and a loving and supportive family I'm back and better than ever! You know if I had the opportunity to change what happened you think I would? Nope. I am a true believer in everything that happens happens for a reason. In all actuality I'm a better person, musician, and artist after the fact.

Give me a good digestion, Lord,
And also something to digest;
Give me a healthy body, Lord,
With sense to keep it at its best;
Give me a healthy mind, good Lord,
To keep the good and pure in sight,
Which seeing sin is not appalled
But finds a way to set it right;
Give me a mind that is not bored,
That does not whimper, whine or sigh;
Don't let me worry overmuch
About the fussy thing called I.
Give me a sense of humor, Lord,
Give me the grace to see a joke,
To get some happiness from life
And pass it on to other folk. - Author Unkown
Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
Where there is injury, pardon,
Where there is doubt, faith,
Where there is despair, hope,
Where there is darkness, light,
and where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may
not so much seek to be consoled,
as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved, as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. - Prayer of Saint Francis of Assis
