TYUS2U
It is my purpose to produce music. I have studied various music genres and instruments for years. Unlike many, I don’t “cut-and-paste” beats or sample. My tracks begin like a blank canvas and sound-by-sound, I create hits. Small town girl doing big music production. Is the world ready?

Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I began playing the piano on my own as soon as I was big enough to climb on the bench of the one at my grandma's house. As a child I spent all of my free time listening to music. As soon as I was old enough to join band in school, I grabbed a saxophone and I'm still playing it. I went to college, majored in music, performed with the band and choir. Also, I am a charter member of Sigma Alpha Iota (International Music Fraternity for Woman). Now, I teach music, produce tracks, write songs, and play piano on Sunday's at my church.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I am currently a music teacher. I play the basics of pretty much every instrument. I mostly dedicate my time to the saxophone, drums, and piano.
