My Story
Welcome to my corner of the internet, and thanks for stopping by! I'm a multi-genre singer, songwriter/composer, and musician based in Westfield, in beautiful western Massachusetts.
As the American-born daughter of South American immigrants, I've navigated my fair share of twists and turns to find my unique voice. Yet through it all, my father, a now-retired electrical engineer who helped NASA launch satellites into outer space, always taught me to "shoot for the stars."
A lifelong devotion to song began in my earliest years, and from the first moment that I encountered a piano keyboard in my youth, my instinct was to write songs. Later, I earned my undergraduate degree from the College of Arts and Sciences at Cornell University, where I spent many an hour in the piano rooms. I went on to study music more extensively after Cornell at Mannes School of Music and Hunter College as a second-degree music major.
People often describe my sound as “soulful” and melodic, and that must be due in part to all of the R&B that I grew up listening to, in addition to my favorite British pop bands.
Beyond my music playing over radio airwaves far and wide, I've been grateful for the warm reception of my songs such as “Dot to Dot" and “Josefina." In 2023, my original pop song, ”Wander," was adapted by me for film and appeared as the soundtrack for the ending and opening credits of the SONY award-winning/multi award-winning short independent film, IN COD WE TRUST, directed by Raphael Edwards and Seonghoon Eric Park. It is a documentary that portrays the joys and challenges of the resilient fishermen in Gloucester, Massachusetts.
Beyond my own performances of original music, I regularly partner with individuals and communities who need vocal and instrumental music. This includes musical theater groups, fellow recording artists, choirs, educational institutions, galleries, private clients, ecumenical groups, libraries, and various other cultural institutions. I am grateful for the support that I have received from cultural institutions, including the Massachusetts Cultural Council, in the course of my work.
My mission is to touch hearts through the power and magic of music.
