Tonight was my last DJ gig of the year!!! I decided in January that I wanted to learn something new this year and I chose DJing 🤭 My goal was to be able to DJ by this holiday season and I ended up starting back in June, 6 months earlier than I thought I could! It’s so fun and I can’t wait to see how it will be a part of my life in 2024. Thank you and for having me tonight! 🥰
C+D’s wedding was what wedding dreams are made of 😍
This wedding and view was something else! 🥰 so grateful for my couple who took a chance on booking me as their wedding music from start to finish (live music + DJing) ☺️
I was thinking the other day about how much I’ve grown since moving to Vancouver. How much more I know about life and people and business and myself. And then I had the thought of how much MORE I’ll learn in the next ten years and beyond that. It’s funny. In the moment you can be so sure of yourself and what you think you know and then time passes and life happens and you can become a completely different person. Anyway, I don’t know if this caption made any sense. Just something I think about a lot 🤭 Thank you for these brand new DJ shots!!!
Thank you for these shots of me performing at A&L’s Whistler wedding 🤍 This was the best start to my summer wedding season and I can’t believe we are almost at the end!! Can’t wait for winter weddings 😍
I just remembered that everyday in grade 7 when the clock said 11:11am I’d literally wish that I could make a living from music 😐🤭🥰
I love seeing photos like this and seeing how happy performing makes me 🥹 some days after a show I feel like I am bursting with happiness. I hope I never lose this love for performing and it never gets old 🤍 thanks to everyone who supports me in this journey - all my clients, listeners, fellow musicians, agents and friends 🤍 📸 at the
This week’s public shows :) it’s gonna be a FUN and busy week with solo shows AND duo and trio shows!!! 😍 let’s goooo! 💃🏻
I still have so much to learn about being a DJ but MAN THIS WEEK WAS FUN! 🥰🤗 Can’t wait to see what the future holds 🤍

I think, maybe, I’m doing what I’m supposed to be doing with my life. (Even though I joke about quitting and moving to a house on a mountain when things get hard) I had a conversation today with a friend about how I look forward to performing every night. That’s why days off are hard for me sometimes! Especially if I’m having a rough day - I just can’t wait to sing and have that feeling of comfort settle in. I’ll be singing .bar tomorrow (Wednesday) night 7-10pm!
Happy Mother’s Day to my best friend 🥹🤍 and all the mommas out there! 🤗🥰
.bar making me feel like I’m in a music video every time with that golden hour light shining through 🤭
So. So. So excited for wedding season to start. My first of the summer season is this weekend and I am just so happy to be back playing for all these wonderful couples 🤍 it’s going to be a beautiful, love filled summer 🤭🥰

Let the holiday festivities BEGIN 😍😍😍
Not sure who needs these reminders today but here are a few random things I remind myself of on a regular basis 🤍
* Not everyone is going to like me or “get” me and that’s just fine.
* It’s not my job to make everyone happy or please everybody (and it’s no one else’s responsibility to make me happy either lol that’s on me)
* Stop doom scrolling 🙃
* It’s ok to protect my energy by surrounding myself with people that lift me up, inspire and encourage me and letting go of people (as hard as it is) that intentionally OR unintentionally do the opposite.
Ok that’s all for now 🤍 you are loved! 🤗
I recently had the opportunity to open for for a couple of his Life is a Highway tour dates 😊 I had such a great time performing in Trail and Cranbrook, signing merch (like… WHAT!?!! 😍), visiting old friends, walking in falling snow and being interviewed on 2Day FM Radio by an old family friend, Dennis Walker. So grateful for the opportunities I’ve had in this life 🥹🤍
Remember when I used to post daily gratitude posts? I stopped posting those but still do it in my journal.. when I remember to… here a few things I’m grateful for lately.
- Friends that check in on you for no reason. Just cause they care about your well being.
- The insanely beautiful fall weather we’ve had so far.
- The patience I’ve been giving myself lately. Not beating myself up for things I feel I haven’t done well enough on or done fast enough. Treating myself more like how I treat my friends and practicing what I preach haha
Super excited to announce that I’ll be opening for Tom Cochrane in Cranbrook (Nov 7-Sold Out) and Trail (Nov 9 tix still available!) !!!! Can’t wait to go back to the Kootenays and perform close to where I studied music at the beginning of my music career 🥹
Is there anything better than getting to follow your dreams with your besties?!?! I think not. This was our “that’s a wrap” photo for the Like I’m Gonna Lose You video shoot ☺️ the link is in my bio if you wanna watch/listen!!!
