Club Med Crested Butte - While there I had the opportunity to sing solo for former president and first lady Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter (link to article about their trip) as part of a limited Charity event in Crested Butte Colorado. It was a pleasure to perform for a president, and a fun part of having "D.C. Royalty" in the house was trying to get the secret service guys to break a smile..... They were everywhere!

First day of class - " The very thing that drives you to act is what you need to overcome in order to do it" Constantin Stanislavski . . . .Definitely something I never forgot.
