Born and raised in Calgary, I moved over the mountains and into the Valley to play music. When I was a young girl, I had cancer and dreamed about being a musician so I could make people happy, because music was my only friend during my treatment and that was the one thing that I really wanted to do. After getting a clean bill of health, I got working on teaching myself to sing and play piano. Now, as an old stinky adult, I write songs about good times, hard times, and strange times.
