About Me

A jazz vocalist, whose primary focus is the use of the voice as an instrument, I am an improvisor and composer as well as an interpreter of song. I am a veteran jazz singer, having worked with Denon recording artists, THE RITZ, and vocal jazz quintet, VOCALEASE. With THE RITZ, I recorded the CD “Almost Blue”, which featured my singing, composing, and arranging talents. As a soloist, I has been dubbed an “outstanding talent” (Sheila Jordan) and “a creative force” (Roberta Davis) by critics and performers who have heard my work. I have performed at Blue Note Jazz Clubs in New York, Tokyo, Jakarta, and Fukuoka, Japan. I have also appeared at numerous jazz festivals throughout the United States and abroad. I am currently working on my debut CD as a leader, which will be recorded in 2004.
