Favorite Hobby: Singing

Singing is What I Do

It has always been a dream of mine to be a singer. I've been singing for as long as I can remember. Would I say that I am the next Mariah Carey? Absolutely not! But it is something that makes me happy.

As far as performance goes, I've participated in the Women's Chorale group in high school for about three years. When I attended Valencia College, I also took voice lessons. Strangely enough, I even auditioned for American Idol in 2009 when I still lived in Orlando! Sadly, we couldn't take photos in the Amway Arena.

But here are some head shots of me from my days in the Beginning Women's group.

At Valencia, I had a wonderful and talented professor, Carla DelVillaggio, teach our voice class. She is also an Barbara Streisand impersonator.

Here are some pictures of my friend, Courteni Dunbar, who is currently studying music at Valencia College, and me in the practice room where my voice class would take place.

would use while we did warm up exercises and performances
in class.

Occasionally, I go with a small group of friends to sing karaoke at Alley Gatorz bowling alley in Gainesville. I doubt I'll be getting a record deal anytime soon, but I'll definitely try my best!
