music
the discovery
I did not always sing in 5 languages and would not have known I could until I tried. I struggled with panic attacks for about a decade after my Dad had passed. But I did not allow the shackles of sorrow and a lack of formal musical education hold me back from this newfound artistic pursuit! Subsequently, with an acceptable demo and an amazing manager at the time, I struck good fortune by landing a record deal with a major label, Sony BMG Music.
Believe that you too can reach your goals and dreams no matter what!

broadening of horizons
as I continue to evolve in music, the honor of working alongside Sony BMG Music brought me to perform in exotic lands from Thailand to Hong Kong, Jakarta, the Philippines, to Guam. Then, I ventured off to the House of Blues and Whisky a Go Go in Los Angeles California. Truly the best time of my life!
the legend
as my deep sultry vocals developed, I was recruited to open for John Legend in 2008 during his album launch "Unplugged", and performed alongside Thailand's favorite new artist at the time, Tor+. He was fascinating and a gentleman. Followed by my guest performance with the Vienna Operetta Orchestra, for the Ambassador of Austria, and Imelda Marcos among others. Moreso, I was a finalist in a Radio Music Awards, nominated as Best New Artist, held a #1 single “Breakout” in an international FM radio station in Southeast Asia amongst the likes of Mariah Carey and Chris Brown.

here's to you Dad
After serving in the military, my Father focused on his music. He was an autodidact multi-instrumentalist, composer and a singer with a golden voice. His love of music exposed my little self wearing a china doll hair style to soft rock, soul and folk music. At the time he attempted to groom me to sing and play the guitar to no avail.

a legacy music had less meaning to me during those rough formative years in my life. The thought of speaking to an audience terrifies me. Let alone sing!
A decade after my father's demise followed by my granmother's passing nine months later, was when the meaning of music truly came to me... perhaps a sense of newfound purpose, impact, a Legacy waiting to be realized.
Join me in my journey.
