I love to sing, more than anything, I sing everywhere, in the car, in the shower, at work ~ at every job I have ever had. When I was a toddler I would wrap a towel around me like a cape, stand on a stepstool, and sing into a screwdriver. I joined the choir in the 3rd grade and stayed with it through high school graduation. During basic training, the girls I bunked with asked me to sing to them at night. I have never been crazy about karaoke, probably cause I dont go to bars. But I have performed the Star Spangled Banner for retirement ceremonies when I was enlisted. I have spent the majority of my life taking care of others first. This is the one thing I want for me. Some people will tell me that I'm not good. Thats ok. Its not very nice, but its ok. There are many singers out there, making millions, that dont have any talent at all, at least not in my opinion. But at the end of the day, what is my opinion to them? I dont think its affecting them one bit.....so I will take a lesson from that, and anyone else that has dreams should too...keep doing what you do. People too weak to follow their own dreams will always find a way to discourage others. My momma taught me better ~ at the risk of being cliche' yet again ~ If you dont have something nice to say, dont say anything at all, cause the only person you are bringing down, is yourself.

I am a mom of two little girls, married 3 years and I stay as busy as I can, I get involved with just about everything I can volunteer for, March of Dimes, Special Olympics, Habitat for Humanity, and every walk/run that I hear about. I'm a youth counselor at a treatment center for troubled youth in Terre Haute, Indiana. I have sang since I was old enough to talk. I spent my entire life in choir. I love just about all music. My influences would include Michelle Branch, Sugarland, Reba, Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood and Amy Lee.
