Hey.
Come sit with me for a sec.
Music & the Arts have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’m a New York native, grew up in Texas, called Nashville home from 8 years, and am now based in Austin, TX. I started performing in local theatre at the age of 5, picked up the guitar at age 10, and began studying classical voice at the age of 14. But my true love was one I wouldn’t share with the world for awhile.
In my preteen years, I began jotting down lyrics in the margins of my school notebooks & softly trying out original songs in my room, well out of earshot. Waiting until I was 18, I slowly started sharing my original songs, right before I would be attending Belmont University in Nashville to earn a degree in this long kept secret obsession of songwriting.
Inspired by the creative energy in Nashville I began writing more than I ever had and began performing at venues like Exit/In, The High Watt, at Belmont University’s Pop Showcase (2014) & at the Musicians Corner Festival (2017), and my music began gaining buzz from, Nashville’s Pop Ambassadors: Ten out of Tenn, East of 8th, Now/It’s Nashville, Nashville’s PØPSQUAD, and local radio stations Lightning 100, ACME Radio, & WMOT Roots Radio.
My style ranges from folk & singer/songwriter to alternative & indie-pop, and I strive to create music that is sonically dynamic and lyrically resonant.
The opening track of Human Heart, “Come To You," was my first song on the radio. I released my first full-length your absence, a closeness in 2018, & an alt. pop single "Shortcut," which was a semi-finalist in the International Songwriting Contest (2020), a reimagined version of “Feeling For You” to accompany my first music video ever and “WINGS” was written as an anthem for the Rutledge Cancer Foundation. After relocating to Austin, TX, I released a compilation of covers, sessions and b-sides in 2022 called finding the light. In 2024 I released new dance-pop single "How Lost I'd Find Myself (without you)" [the encore] and my sophomore album, 27teen!
