I am a school teacher by day, and a NeedToBreath groupie by night, lol :-)
Musical Influences
I am personally not a musician, but I was in school chorus and church choir.
I do love to sing for fun, and often end up with a 'country' sound to my voice. I like to emulate female country singers like Shania Twain, Carrie Underwood, and Trisha Yearwood, or christian rock singers like the Barlow Girls and Joy Williams.
Favorite Places
Cold Stone ice cream parlor! Yum!
My grandmother's kitchen, she always has something delicious cooking.
My church, I love fellowshiping with other believers.
A rock concert, like NeedToBreathe's concerts. :-)
