Ive been singing since I can remember. Whether it was to my fathers guitar or the radio, Ive always had a song on my lips.  I was a real ham too, putting on shows for my family and friends.  However as I grew, stage fright set in and my singing was confined to my car and the shower. After meeting my 2nd husband, he convinced me to try out karaoke, buying me a singing machine to practice with. Slowly I developed more confidence until finally I sang in front of my first karaoke audience in February, 2003. I have taken baby steps as my shyness is peeling away in thin layers and someday I hope to be known worldwide. Here is a short list  of my accomplishments: April 2003 - Sang at a showcase at Gilleys in Las Vegas, was later contacted by Affinity Music in Nashville to represent me, decided to put things on hold for a while. October 11, 2003 - played Crystal in a Studio 54 Murder Mystery musical at the Miami Springs Country Club, FL. Feb 8, 2004 - Won the Country/Pop category at the NY Int l Music Festival held at Cocowalk in Coconut Grove, FL. Feb 13, 2004 - My own showcase at Miami Springs Country Club, FL. July 2004 - Won first place karaoke contest at Boomers, Port Charlotte, FL.
