About

Guitarist, writer, and musical content creator. She is widely recognized as the badass lead guitar player for the hard rock-blues band 79. She has also earned a formidable reputation as an independent online instrumentalist.

Before fame

She officially fell in love with music and began her journey learning how to play the guitar in 2014. Later that exact same year, she crossed paths with singer Ali Quinn to co-found her core musical project, the band 79. She has actively shared her instrumental growth across social media for years, documenting major project milestones like her band's studio album cycle, Scenes from a Nonstop Life.

Trivia

Her entire musical trajectory started by complete accident when her mother stumbled upon a discount Groupon voucher for a local music school. She hilariously walked into her very first formal guitar lesson wielding a cheap instrument purchased from a local Costco wholesale store. She actually picked up the instrument at age 14 with the hyper-specific, ambitious goal of one day meeting her absolute favorite legendary band, Aerosmith. Her immense skill has caught the attention of the wider music industry, earning her high-profile instrument endorsements from historic names like Gibson Guitars and Marshall Amps.

She is based in the United States.
