About

My songwriting inspirations are the Tin Pan Alley guys like Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, Dorothy Fields, and George Gershwin. And I don’t think I’d have even written a song if it weren’t for the musical genius of Sting- his lyrics and contagious melodies shaped so much of my songwriting. I find lyrical inspiration in literature from Shakespeare to Peter Pan as well as tea and dessert items. I have a degree in Humanities and have also worked at chocolate shops, bookstores, and libraries so you can see that, in my case at least, one writes what one knows. Some of the places my songs have turned up: Nashville Colbert Report Dance Moms Big Morning Buzz Live Breaking Amish Breaking Amish: Brave New World Here Comes Honey Boo Boo Say Yes to the Dress Atlanta Marido en Alquiler Shoot the Hero The Man Who Shot Beautiful Women Crowd Goes Wild HitRecord The Director Make it or Break it
