According to my mama, I was singing before I could even walk. But I began recording and performing seriously in 2010.

🎸 What genre would you consider your music to be?

Genres can feel limiting, but if I had to pick — it’s definitely folk-country.

✨ What inspired you to pursue a career in music

The dream of reaching people with music. That simple, that powerful.

🎵 Who are your biggest musical influences?

My 7 Honky-Tonk Angels... and my dad. Both are deeply personal and profound sources of inspiration.

💼 Are you signed to a label?

I’m unsigned and independent — but always open to the right opportunity.

⚖️ What have been the biggest challenges in your music career?

Honestly, the biggest hurdles are internal:
The fear of failure... and the fear of success.

Since 2010, I’ve released three independent albums filled with original songs and covers:
