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. After putting out a diverse catalog of music over the years, more recently I released my first album your absence, a closeness in 2018, an alt. pop single “Shortcut” in 2019 (a semi-finalist in the International Songwriting Competition), a reimagined version of a single I released in 2015 to accompany my first music video ever, “WINGS,” written as an anthem for the Rutledge Cancer Foundation, and more.

Check out my latest singles “Headlines” and “Bored Game!” New EP coming Spring 2023 and full-length album coming 2024.
