View Profile →I’m an artist, trumpeter, singer-songwriter, producer & touring musician who lives in service to the music. I’m a long standing member of Beyoncé’s band & a musical contributor to 12 world tours, 23 grammy affiliated projects & multiple platinum records with everyone from Roy Hargrove to Karol G, Lupe Fiasco, Alejandro Sanz & more. I love creating safe spaces (especially studio settings) for women to collaborate and grow together. Most recently I became a mother and chose to play trumpet for the entire Renaissance Tour fully pregnant. Women can do anything & we deserve a seat at the table in the music industry & all other sectors of business!!
