Her songwriting and artistic mission are informed by her background in counseling, as she holds a Master’s degree in the field, as well as by her ministry work as a worship team leader and youth Sunday school teacher. She is married to Benjamin Williams and is the mother of two daughters. Her catalog includes the EPs "Not Forgotten" and "Love Gospel," as well as songs such as "Rise," "Brand New," and "Amen."
