After years tinkering, an album is finally on the horizon! Exploring longing and loss, evolution, release, love, and empowerment, we'll record with studio musicians immersed to foster deeper expression and creative discovery of familiar and new tracks alike. It's happening this December at Guilford Sound in Vermont through generously gifted studio time. Singin' my heart out at Daily Dose a few years ago. Not pictured: my crush sitting in the front row. This one I'm singing was written about him. MERP. Pic by McNick!
Having performed as a singer since I was five, I’ve experienced firsthand the power of music to communicate what words alone cannot. In an increasingly disconnected world, heartfelt connection and authentic expression feel more essential than ever. Music and dance reconnect us to our humanity and embolden relationships and communities.
The album’s indie-soul-punk essence will channel my earnest energy through piercing lyrics, diverse arrangements, and a voice friends describe as “powerful” and “contemporary soul”.

Album-release shows will be inclusive, donation-based market-style gatherings featuring local artists, a range of performances (music, spoken word, drag), and mental health /community resources to build connections beyond the event. The goal is to create novel ways to gather, express, and belong.
This album is just the beginning. Future releases and continued community offerings will build this practice and, eventually, intersect with resilience coaching through Pretty Moving across mountain communities. The vision is to inspire action and explore what’s possible when we are connected, embodied, and truly alive.
Prioritizing vulnerability and play in all aspects of life, I aim to inspire others to step into their power to live and love more fully. Inspired by the vastness of nature, growing up wandering the woods and coastlines of Maine. Capturing the beauty I witness through photography, doodles, and play, my most hallowed mediums are music and writing.
Writing and singing connect me with a deeper knowing. I craft songs to access raw, healing places. Music is medicine, and songs catalyze our intuition and curiosity. Music calls me to be more radially honesty and deeper self-awareness.
Your support on this journey will grow into something far greater than the sum of it's part. Thank you for being part of the unfolding!
