I grew up listening to the jazz greats on my nana and pop's record player. Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holliday, Nina Simone shaped my love of jazz music.
I grew up with both parents in a soul band so I started performing at a young age. I then moved to Sydney where I lived for 10 years and was managing events at Sydney Opera House when they asked me to sing for their jazz Sundays! Which was a dream come true!
I specialise in luxury and bespoke events. I love creating musical experiences for special events; particularly weddings and events with themed design!
Arrival: 45 minutes before the performance
