Performer *musician/singer

Daren and I have been playing music since we were kids.  Imagine different countries, doing what seemed like the greatest dream as a young kid.  Daren traveling on the road between Canada and the US with his dad and different bands thru the course of 8-10 years and me promoting my culture through music across Canada during school summer breaks.  Meeting in Edmonton Alberta and soon after we would be performing together for years.  Married in 1993, still traveling for a bit longer then finally our family was beginning.  Moved to Las Vegas continuing music full time while Daren picked up more side jobs to support our family of 3.  In 1998, we picked up the family and moved to Umatilla Oregon where we would start managing a family business and continue to play music with local musicians.  Today, in 2023 and we continue to play music in a special way.  Our son Dakota has a craft unlike ours.   Hes a talented guitar player/songwriter/producer & singer.  We are proud beyond of him and to be able to play on stage with him now and again fills our soul.
