Remember when MTV played music videos? I do. I remember being so envious of the people performing in the videos. I would dance along with the videos and imagine myself on stage performing too. Recently, thanks to the pandemic, I have fallen back in love with music and now I am on a journey to bring my teenage dreams to life.
Currently, I live in San Diego, California. Not that far from Hollywood but yet - still so far from Hollywood. But it's not fame that I'm after. It's recognition. See fame can go to ones head and they get far to big in their britches and become absolute assholes - self-absorbed and obsessed with public praise or approval. I don't want to become one of those people. I don't want to forget where I came from. I don't want to forget to pay all of my success forward.
But before I get too far ahead of myself, I have to dive into the world of performing arts and that starts with an upcoming collaboration with Miles Cartier - a diamond in his own right on the rise - Ultraviolet Girl.

Who is Ultraviolet Girl? Ultraviolet is the brain child of Miles Cartier brought to life through music. I am grateful to have been selected as the female vocals for the track.
Over the next couple of months, I will be working alongside Miles Cartier, to bring Ultraviolet Girl to life and I can't wait to share with all you what happens behind the scenes. From recording to story-boarding to production of the music video - all of you are coming along for the ride!
It is my hope to share opportunities and insight into the world of music development and production. As well as it is my hope to use this project as a catalyst to help launch my musical career. At thirty-one years old, I am a little "behind," but honestly, I think that I am more than ready and capable to jump down the rabbit hole and come out the other side stronger than when I went in.
If you have any questions or would like to keep up, feel free to subscribe. I will do my absolute best to keep everyone informed of my other projects as well. Thank you.
