I'm an alto vocalist and MC Entertainer raised in the southern state of Louisiana.

As a lead singer, I worked with Electric Empire on Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines. I recorded many of my own back up vocals as we used midi/sequencer files for some songs. I prefer Funk/Disco , but also enjoy performing upbeat Country, Motown and Blues.. sprinkle in some Rock & Roll and you've got my entire resume.

I am used to performing nightly for a wide variety of audiences. I can sing a soulful ballad and jump right into Pat Benatar.--

I also have experience as an "MC" on Carnival and Royal Caribbean cruise ships hosting pool games and contests for over 1,000 people, introducing the headliner comedian and running karaoke shows (sometimes in costume). I have hosted game shows, triva shows and have led line dances and crazy conga lines containing over 300 people, not to mention encouraging guest to do the limbo using a feather boa!
I have also worked as a karaoke host for city fairs, coffee shops and private parties.

In addition to that, I also have experience at DJ'ing weddings and private parties. My specialty is Funk/Disco/Old School.

I'm no stranger to hard work and I also believe in being a good student. Please view the INFLUENCES tab for a sample songlist of music I sing.
