Singer - Songwriter - Storyteller
Advocate for freedom of expression.“I am a business operations leader five days a week. I enjoy the job and the people I work with; that’s how work fits my life. Singing, songwriting, and storytelling are what fuel my soul. Music is my preferred form of expression. Freedom of expression is the foundation; it ignites my passion for life.”

Storytelling Through Music & Lyrics
Music is a great storyteller.  Melody, harmony, instrumentation, dynamics, phrasing by themselves can elicit an emotional response very personal to the listener.  Lyrics bring the story of the music to life, giving the listener a glimpse into another world and a starting point for the imagination to take flight.
My music. I hope you enjoy.

My Stories
Everyone Has a Story
In the race to the most likes, shares, witty comments, and outrageous meme, the simplicity of connecting with someone and sharing an "everyday" moment is lost. What happened to sharing and appreciating the little things, the small act of kindness, a moment that brought a smile or a tear, or the joy of the unexpected encounter with a total stranger in line at the grocery store?
Use Your Platform
A crisp fall morning and I was headed to an off-site meeting. Like many other women, I was the youngest and only female on the leadership team.
I stood on the corner waiting to cross the street. My thoughts were interrupted when a car pulled up to the stop sign. In the car were two of my peers, the COO,
In Life
What’s My Story?
For me, music and art are the most natural forms of communication. Singing, songwriting, and storytelling are what fuel my soul. Freedom of expression is the foundation; it ignites my passion for life.
I am an Italian American raised in the mid-west. The suburbs, the country, and the city have all been home. I am the oldest of 4 and all that comes with that. I am drawn to the East coast – the frenzy and the deep cultural roots. Being on the water calms me and brings me clarity. I recently found my forever place on the shore of Lake Erie with my husband in a sleepy little lake town.
I prefer small groups (<6) over a big gathering unless I am on stage singing. My laugh is loud. I am outgoing and quiet all at the same time. My energy comes from others and from spending time alone.
I love to cook (and eat) and welcome people into our home to share a meal and conversation. I prefer the unique messy slant on vintage décor and the mix of new with old to the clean lines of contemporary.
I am an avid college football fan; the Ohio State Buckeyes are my team. However, watching hockey, golf, basketball, just about any sport excites me. I feed off the energy and marvel at the dedication of the athletes putting it all out there every time they step onto their canvas.
I am many things – a mix of who I am at my core with the experiences I’ve had and the people I’ve met along the way.
Thanks for taking a moment to take a glimpse inside.

For me, music and art are the most natural forms of communication. Singing, songwriting, and storytelling are what fuel my soul. Freedom of expression is the foundation; it ignites my passion for life.​
