In May 2012 her debut album entitled, That's What I Do, was released with a live-to-air concert celebration on JAZZ.FM91 hosted by Ross Porter, President and CEO of JAZZ.FM91. She continues to perform regularly in the Greater Toronto Area, presenting a wide repertoire of both jazz standards and original music. Her thoughts on pursuing a career as a jazz musician: “Nice work if you can get it. And you can get it if you try.”
