When I was a child, I had already been singing since I could speak. My mother had been a professional singer and dad a drummer. They decided not to get me a coach, they didn’t feel I needed it.
Several of my students have auditioned for American Idol, The Voice and X-Factor. Most have gone on to the 2nd and 3rd round of producers, only to not make it to the little, or big screen in your home.

In the 70′s I was in groups, traveling all over the country. Living out of a trunk. I was in “Commonwealth” with my then boyfriend, Jorge Casas, and friend Maurice Moore.
Our Playboy Club contracts were over and we had been at the Lions Den at the original MGM and the Blue Room at the Tropicana.

When Michael Selinsky wrote me via Facebook, about being inducted into the Las Vegas Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, I was very excited. Not only would I see my band-mates again, but we would play, together again, on stage.
