I was born in Houston, Texas and grew up in Europe, as well as the San Francisco Bay area. By Thirteen I was performing in different bands and appeared in several music productions while attending The American School in London. I relocated to the Bay area with my family where I performed with several different bands. One of my best friends and I started a production company called, "Vocal X-Press".This was and still is a successful understudy company in the San Francisco Bay Area.

In 1995, I relocated to sunny SouthWest Florida. It was then I added cruise ships to my list of venues.  I'm very blessed to have performed with "2nd Chance", "The Sistas", "Brotha Motown & Sista Darci J", "High Tide", "Dieter's Blues Machine", "Uptown Shufflers" "Pyrate Voodoo" and most recently  "Darci J and Ben Clifford DUO"
