A little about me:

I'm a farm girl from Western Maryland who is still figuring herself out, and I've decided to focus on music to help me do just that!  My family is ridiculously important to me, and I have tried moving away only to always end up back home on the farm, which is where I feel safe, comfortable, and happy. 

One thing I know for sure... I am and have always been a singer.  When I was a little girl, I sang all the time - even when I was supposed to be quiet  :)  My mom recently stumbled upon a recording of me singing along with my dad when I was four years old, which of course brought us all to tears, as well as served to solidify something I believe I've always known: I was born to do this.

While I've been singing my whole life, I am in the early stages of my music career.  I took the leap into being a full-time musician just last year in June 2019.  Since then, I have been exploring my sound, learning more about my songwriting process, recording backing vocals and performing with several amazing artists in the DMV, attempting to learn 10 instruments at once, and writing and recording for both solo and duo projects.

I am so excited to release my DEBUT single 'In This Space' this year (to which you'll get early access if you decide to jump in on this journey with me - yay!)  'In This Space' contains shades of blues, adult contemporary, folk and more, and is hard to place in any one genre.  That is really no surprise, because personally, my musical taste is all over the place:  I grew up listening to oldies, I love rock, pop, singer-songwriter, emo, indie (...the list continues), and theater and show tunes hold a special place in my heart.  I find inspiration in just about every type of music, and my own music is a reflection of that.

I have big plans for an entire album, collaborative music videos, a fun interview series, and much more... I need your help to bring these dreams to fruition.



Why I use Patreon:

It has taken me awhile to get to this point - the point at which I can confidently ask for the help I need to be able to continue making music as an independent artist.  I have fallen in love with the community that music naturally creates; there is something so powerful about the way it brings people together. 

The Patreon platform harnesses that power and allows me to give back to the community that forms the backbone of my career as a creative.  This model is so important to me because it gives me regular monthly income while maintaining the freedom to create on my own terms.  That is a beautiful thing.

When I am struggling with imposter syndrome, I remind myself of something a dear friend once shared with me: It is selfish to keep our gifts inside. They are meant to be shared and enjoyed by all.  I have been blessed with this gift, and now the opportunity to really share it, and your patronage will help me do that!

How it Works:

To watch a quick video that explains more about Patreon, click here. 

My Patreon page works as a monthly subscription, and you choose a tier based on how much you'd like to contribute each month for certain rewards. You can cancel any time, and setting it up is super easy.

Each tier builds on the last, with higher tiers offering additional rewards.  Examples of the goodies I'm offering: access to my personal blog and playlist, exclusive songs, videos, and livestreams, my latest merchandise delivered right to your door, a vote on which song I develop next, 1-on-1 sessions, and even a private concert!  ALSO, you get to see me do my happy dance as a thank you for joining :-D

Your pledge will go directly towards helping me make more music, sharing that music with more people, and bringing more peace and positivity into our everyday lives.

The fact that you read all this way means you'd like to support me in my creative journey, and I appreciate that with my whole heart.  I look forward to welcoming you into my inner circle!
