Meet the Act

Thanks for checking out my profile! I’ve been performing my whole life and I love sharing music with people! I am professional, and I take performances seriously no matter how big or small. When I’m not performing, I love hiking, biking, birding, and exploring the beautiful Southwest desert of Arizona.
