California Girl
When your born and raised in Southern California every day is a good day. I feel so blessed to live where the sun is always shining and the waves are always good.

Lights…Camera…Action!
This music video “And I Am Telling You” was my tribute to Jennifer Holliday who originally made this song famous with the movie Dream Girls.

A Tribute To Etta James
In 2010 I recorded my first music video “At Last” as a video tribute to one of the greatest female voices of all times. This timeless classic embodies the soul and sound of an era when music was pure and simply produced. Etta lived a rough life, but through it all she left us with music and a style that will forever shape the way singers perform. She was born in Jamesetta Hawkins on January 25, 1938 in...
