I am a local artist, and I have performed in the DMV area over the past years. I perform a range of gospel/R&B music in the DMV area. I have not been able to sing in clubs, restaurants/bar settings, theaters, arenas, or entertainment establishments due to COVID 19. It has become a huge struggle to survive without being able to benefit from singing engagements. Any assistance provided at this time will be of great help to me and my family.

And when I would not listen to my calling..I was let go and found myself face to face with who I really am and want to be...
