Bio/Story:
I was born in the middle of a family crisis. My father had just died in a car accident, leaving my mother a widow. We did not have much, but I knew I was loved and that when we had nothing, we had Jesus. One thing that our family made a focus is music. I was on the stage and getting booked at churches from the time I was four years old and on. I have had several difficult life experiences, but Momma's lesson of God being enough kept me through it all.
I hope that my life will be a testament of the love and grace of Christ. I pray to achieve this through music that glorifies Him and a lifestyle that does the same.
