Lead Vocal on
"A Star for the Night"
I was born and
raised a California girl and have been an entrepreneur for 10 years. I started Pacific
Trade Unlimited in 1994. P.T.U. is a 'business to business trade company' for small
businesses enabling them to trade products and services. It helps business owners to get
more business, more profits and save money.
I am also the
founder of "A Star for the Night" Foundation (see 'Other Related Info' link)
In 1980, I sang
back-up vocals on the "Freeman's Rainbow" album for The Billy Tanon Band. From
1988-1993, I hosted "Celebrity Encounters," a syndicated Cable show (Hearst,
TCI, Heritage & Viacom) with viewership of over 900,000. I was fortunate enough to
interview a wide variety of celebrities including: Sammy Hagar, Santana, Joe Satriani,
Huey Lewis & Greg Kihn to name a few. My media background includes radio features on
KGO, KPEN & "DJ of the Day" with KARA. Print features include Class Magazine
in Marin and The Los Gatos Insider.
I'm very passionate
about my daughter and my businesses. I am truly inspired by music and grateful for being a
part of "Time Capsule."
My future goals are to help as many underprivileged children as possible and bring more public awareness through "A Star for the Night" events. Through this passion, I have found a purpose, and hope to inspire others to give to such worthwhile causes as children in need, endangered wildlife, the planet, or whatever moves your heart.
