I received my first guitar at the age of nine. Immediately, I wanted to be a singer and play the guitar. But my hopes were drowned as I could not afford lessons to learn how to play. I Tried several times on my own, but did not have the patience. I placed the guitar in the closet in hopes that some day I would learn to play. Shortly after, I moved to live with my mom, as my parents were divorced, and I forgot all about my guitar. At age 14, I found a old Electric Les Paul and power amp in My stepdad's house that had not been used in a long time. I started again to learn how to play but found it hard to focus on playing as girls were now coming into the picture. My Fame and fortune would have to wait.

I got my big break after Graduating High School. I had some friends that wanted to start a band. Everyone except me had experience so I had to learn to play something fast. They needed a Bass player, so I picked up the bass and started thumping around on it. They showed me a few chords and from there I began to learn on my own.

Since then, I have played in several bands, both Rock and Country, and had the opportunity to open up for the band Kansas. Playing for Sequoia Drive has been my biggest accomplishment yet. All the guys in the band have their own unique talent which brings excitment and fun for both the band and our fans. Fame and Fortune would be nice, but as long as I am doing what I love, playing and singing Country Music, I have more than enough to satisfy me.
