This vocalist has been performing professionally for over 30 years from the legendary Tavern on the Green in New York City's Central Park West to engagements in Japan. JazzTimes Magazine has described her as a "confident, musical, swinging stylist who is simply a joy to hear. Her voice is sweet, clear, and pure with a deceptively wide range, attractive vibrato, and superior intonation." She is recognized as a crossover artist covering a variety of styles and repertoires with a primary focus on jazz standards and the American Songbook. A.D. Amorosi of The Inquirer refers to her as "a Philadelphia treasure"...
