Her original music transcends the hat and boots, deeply rooted in Honky-Tonk, Americana, Outlaw, Western, Rockabilly, Blues, Tejano and Gospel, showcasing her dynamic vocal range. Her passion for country music led her to pursue it further. She drew inspiration from artists such as The Judds, LeAnn Rimes, Terri Clark, Johnny Cash, Alan Jackson, Travis Tritt, George Strait, Brooks and Dunn, Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline, and Dolly Parton, whose songs from that period her mother used to play, in addition to traditional Tejano and Gospel music. Her performances have featured opening acts for renowned artists such as Clay Walker, Gary P. Nunn, Rick Trevino, Kylie Frey, Josh Ward, Jake Worthington, Micky and the Motorcars, and Kyle Nix. Additionally, she has had the honor of sharing the stage with icons like Dale Watson and invited to perform with the legendary Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlan.
