Some people find their calling. I was born into mine.

Enrolled in dance lessons at five, piano at six, and voice by seven, I've spent over 30 years mastering the craft of music, movement, and performance. I didn't just grow up loving this work. I grew up living it. It's not a career I chose. It's who I am.

Originally from Minnesota (Go Vikings!), I chose Chicago as my home and graduated from Columbia College Chicago with a concentration in vocal performance. Over a career built on stages across the country, I've performed at iconic venues including the Vic Theater, the Aragon, and the House of Blues in Chicago, and Summerfest in Milwaukee. I've shared the stage alongside Buddy Guy, Koko Taylor, Styx, Everclear, and Steve Augeri of Journey, to name a few.

ChiVibe Productions LLC (pronounced SHY-vibe) is where my worlds collide. As a Chicago-based entrepreneur, vocalist, emcee, DJ, and bandleader, I deliver high-impact performances that blend live vocals, instrumentation, and DJ-led sets into a rich, adaptable sound built for any event or production. With 18 years rooted in the Chicago and Midwest markets, I've performed across corporate galas, fundraisers, private celebrations, and major festivals. I'm also the proud bandleader of the acclaimed Entourage Band with Arlen Music Productions.

My voice has carried well beyond the stage. As a commercial studio vocalist, I've lent my voice to national brands including McDonald's and Rocket Mortgage. As a commissioned visual artist, I've created custom art installations, abstract pieces, and large-format paintings for private buyers and corporate clients, including The School of Rock and Electric Forest Music Production Studio.

As a member of MPI Chicago, Choose Chicago, and the National Association of Professional Women, I bring the same intentionality to event partnerships as I do to every performance. Whether you're looking for a seasoned performer, a trusted event partner, or a creative collaborator, I'm here to make your vision come to life. The stage is where my heart is, and the audience is who I choose to share it with.
