Bio

I see my bass-baritone voice as something bigger than myself. Music is a universal language, and I want to use mine to bridge gaps, build community, and spark healing. I want to be the kind of artist who makes people feel less alone. Whether I’m performing on stage, collaborating with others, or encouraging a younger singer to keep going, I want my voice to be a reminder: that you matter, your story matters, and beauty can grow from even the hardest places.

      Making a positive impact: I believe that music has the power to heal wounds we can’t always see and to connect people across boundaries that might otherwise divide us. Through my voice, I plan to make a positive impact on the world by creating spaces where people feel understood, valued, and uplifted. As a vocal artist, I don’t just want to perform songs but I also want to tell stories that resonate deeply, offering hope to those who need it and celebration to those who rarely see their experiences honored on a stage. While signing in the choir, I learned that singing wasn’t about standing out; it was about blending, listening, and supporting something bigger than myself. Every rehearsal demanded presence, preparation, and heart. Those lessons translated beyond music into how I currently approach challenges, collaboration, and leadership in everyday life. Most importantly, choir helped me build confidence. Before that class, I wasn’t sure my voice deserved to be heard. But my choir director believed in me, offering solos and leadership opportunities that pushed me to step up and trust in my abilities. That belief stayed with me, giving me the courage to later perform on stages like Carnegie Hall and to continue pursuing a career in music. Growing up, I didn’t always have access to role models who looked like me or who encouraged emotional expression. I know firsthand how important it is to see and hear someone who reminds you that your voice matters. That’s why a major part of my vision is not just performing, but mentoring. I want to work with young people, especially in underserved communities, to help them discover the power of their own voices. Whether that be through music, storytelling, or leadership, I’m hopeful my voice can make a difference. Additionally, I plan to use the education I ascertain from Morgan State University and the experiences to host workshops, create performance opportunities, and serve as a reminder that art is not a luxury, but it’s a necessity. It teaches resilience, empathy, creativity, and connection. I hope to use my journey to show others that their dreams are valid, that their struggles are not invisible, and that their gifts have a place in this world. Ultimately, my goal is to build a career not just based on stages and spotlights, but on meaningful impact. Through every note I sing and every life I touch, I want to remind people that they are not alone and that beauty can rise even from the hardest places.
