ABOUT

For as long as I can remember, music has been a part of my life. I've been studying since I was a kid and have accumulated 15 years of training. It's a part of me, and I can't imagine life without it. As of now, I found myself not in a major performing ensemble for the first time in ten years or so, and I'm not a big an of that. i don't really wanna do choral stuff though. I am a trained opera singer, but finding that I want to explore other genres. I've spent six months or so retraining my voice to sing jazz, and have completely fallen in love with that world. Jazz has such a rich culture, and I am fascinated with complexities of it. Unfortunately, there aren't a great many places to perform so I am reaching out through social networking sites to try and find a group to sing the standards with.

Influences

As of late, I've studied the likes of Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong, Dinah Washington, Bobby Darin, and Michael Buble extensively. They have become my favored artists, though what's not to like about Billie Holliday and Tony Bennett? I'd love to have a voice like Louis, but my style is more akin to Bobby Darin.
