Well, I am one of the few, the proud – actually born in New York City! Raised on Long Island with an awesome family who cultivated a love for music, comedy, and anything on tv… really, anything. I\u2019ve gotten to travel all over the world thanks to this business, and I love it. To get to sing and play and travel is the best job I can imagine.\u00a0 In between performing gigs I’ve worked as a Vocal Director for cruise ships.\u00a0 I’ve enjoyed the challenge of teaching people the intricacies of classics such as \u201cShaft.\u201d I look forward to the day when I get to finally delve into the harmonic possibilities of \u201cWho Let the Dogs Out?\u201d I’ve also been fortunate enough to help create several shows that are currently floating around on various ships at sea. In my spare time I love keeping track of funny stuff my parents say, making music with my husband and his band The Switch, collecting old things, reading old books, playing old records, and eating new desserts.\u00a0 So, what would I like to do more of? Everything. Especially baking – because cake is good.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
