About me

I am a vocalist, storyteller, and collaborator based in Buffalo, New York. My work lives at the intersection of jazz, classical, and musical theatre traditions, grounded in a deep love for expressive, honest storytelling through music.

​

I grew up in a household where music was constant—everything from jazz and gospel to classical, funk, and soul—and that early immersion paved the foundation for the way I listen, interpret, express and connect. Over time, that foundation has grown into a practice that values curiosity, versatility, and emotional truth in every performance.

​

As a performer, I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with an incredible community of musicians and artists, creating programs, tribute concerts, and original work across a wide range of styles. Whether I’m interpreting a standard, stepping into a theatrical role, or exploring new material, I’m always searching for something deeper—something that feels lived-in, immediate, and real.

​

I’m also deeply committed to education and community engagement. Working with students, whether in classrooms, workshops, or one-on-one settings, is one of the most meaningful parts of my career. It keeps me connected to the core of why I make music in the first place: to communicate, to connect, and to keep discovering.

​

My goal through all avenues of my work are to create work that resonates, that tells the truth, and that invites others into the experience.
