After two years of recovery from treatment for a benign brain tumor, I returned to singing. A few months later, I wanted to perform in dedicated jazz settings and venues. I made a list of venues and jazz festivals where I wanted to perform. After several attempts to get booked at a jazz festival without a booking agent, I realized my chances were slim. I decided to start my own jazz festival that will be the third annual Palm Beach International Jazz Festival, in 2021, a one-day, two-concert event at the Kravitz Center in West Palm Beach. I enjoy showcasing local and international talent, along with young jazz students in an intimate concert setting. I am so grateful that God has given me this vision and that He has brought it into fruition. I look forward to producing this festival annually!
