Born and raised in the city of

Detroit, as a native Detroiter, I have

 had the opportunity to study with

the best Detroit has to offer, from

Teddy Harris to Sam Sanders.

 

I released my first CD, In Spirit In

Truth, in 2003. The track, Moonlight

 was in regular rotation on WGPR. I

 have played in local venues, such as

 Baker’s Keyboard Lounge, Charles

 Wright Museum and Detroit

Historical Museum, as well as

private sponsored events.

I am currently in the process of

 releasing my sophomore project

with already released single

Brighter Days featuring Terry Tuck.,

 which can be heard on internet

radio stations such as The Oasis, The

 Moth UK, The Cool Jazz Network,

Sassy Radio, Jazz Juice Radio, and

the Indie Music Network .

 

My music is a reflection of my

 environment, growing up in the city

 of Detroit. A soulful Jazz, seasoned

with funk.

I am an independent artist still residing in the city of Detroit.
