Overview

Think of me as an entertainment 'Swiss Army Man'. Singer/Actor/Songwriter. I can sing, act, and/or emcee for any event you may need. I play ukulele and piano, plenty of covers and a handful of originals. I can write songs and mashups for events, and change up the words in already written songs to accommodate any occasion. I can slide into a group but also thrive solo.

About

I'm a Texan by origin, and my love for music came from listening to my mom and dad sing gospel music in church. I felt most at home singing soul. My love for music catapulted me into two realms: performing in high school and songwriting in college. I graduated from Webster Conservatory in 2015 with a degree in Musical Theatre, and was fortunate to book the 1st National Tour of Bullets Over Broadway right out of school. Music for me is one of the most intimate ways I can connect with others, and it brings me joy to express myself with my own, and entertain with others'. I've only just arrived in this city and am eager to eat up all the opportunities I can find!

Additional booking notes

I'd need some sort of sound system with a mic and amplification for my ukulele if the venue requires it. No lighting or staging required.
