SURPRISED ABOUT BEING A PART
OF RYZE: I am surprised AND honored to even be in the number.
Being an independent artist is
work. It is not often that people
recognize your efforts.
As a Freshman in high school: I
wanted to be a part of ANY and
EVERYTHING that involved singing. I attended and graduated
from North Atlanta School of Performing Arts in Atlanta, Georgia
where I studied music for 2 hours
daily in addition to rehearsals
and traveling as “Atlanta’s Showbiz Kid.” My fondest memory is
walking across the street from
school to rehearsals and singing
Vivaldi’s “Gloria” with orchestra...
good times, good times.
“IF I COULD ONLY EAT ONE FOOD
IT WOULD BE CHOCOLATE COVERED
GRAHAM CRACKERS.
THEY’RE SIMPLY DIVINE.”
INFLUENCED BY: Whitney Houston, Earth Wind and Fire, The
Clark Sisters, Leandria Johnson,
Donny Hathaway to name a few.
