General Info

As you can probably guess, most of my life is music. My dream is to be a country singer, and I'm very serious about achieving that goal. I'm probably one of the most stubborn and determined people you'll ever meet, but that also makes me one of the most loyal and passionate people you'll ever meet. Family and friends are very important to me, and I'm also an animal lover. I'm a pretty shy person until you get to know me, and then I'm very outgoing. I believe that it is very important to know where you come from, and who blessed you with everything you have. To put it simply, it's all about God. Even if I never get a record deal in Nashville, I am determined to use what He's given me to glorify Him with the music I love, and that will never change.

Influences - Martina McBride, Rascal Flatts, Billy Gilman, Jimmy Wayne, Carrie Underwood.
