I was raised in beautiful British Columbia, Canada. The central interior of BC was my stomping grounds for the love of nature. My father was musical with a great passion for animals, my mother had an artistic flair for creativity. Being the youngest of 6, my 5 older siblings, and I were always busy since growing up on a farm. I would often be inspired by my older siblings because of their wonderful talent to draw.

My father’s beautiful singing voice brought music into our home, which was inspiring as well. At the age of 22 I studied at the University College of the Cariboo, and received a diploma in digital art, and design, at the age of 24 I purchased my fist acoustic guitar, taught myself how to play, and began to song write. Through life’s peaks, and valleys  in 1998 I married my high school sweetheart, and 2 years later we were blessed with identical twin daughters. Unfortunately our sweet girls were diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at ages 2 and 5.
