Owner
I began singing in NightLife in the 90's and then became the owner/leader over 10 years ago. It has been a huge blessing and I LOVE what I do. I know the performance side of entertaining, but I am also an expert in scheduling, client relations, and creating perfect events from the opening notes of the ceremony music, through gorgeous cocktail hour music, to the packed reception dance floors. I know how to run a great event and happily guide my clients through the planning process to ensure an excellent party with your specific music choices. Each NightLife event is different and special!
