I have a pure, clear, 3 octave range. First place winner, Spring 2023, World Songwriting Awards. World Songwriting Awards top ten Spring and Fall 2022. "Letter of Accomplishment" from the Billboard Song Contest. Composed and produced 3 CDs of original music and I am currently pitching for sync to TV and Film.
I have a gentle, yet powerful voice. I can do 3 part harmony with myself or others. I write primarily folk based, nature centered, introspective music, with a Celtic twist, I enjoy stretching myself and singing other's songs. When I perform I do a mix of folk, easy listening, country, adult contemporary and my originals. I am self taught and play the Autoharp. I learn quickly and enjoy the rapport of musicians.

Interview with Einen, Oregon Born Music
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: I always start out with paper and pen, my phone's voice app, and my Autoharp. Then it is an amalgamation of melody, lyric and instrumentation. After I have completed a song, I put it into my computer. Then comes recording. Simple answer: BOTH.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That it's easy!
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Please provide a work for hire agreement. Be clear about your expectations, time-line and limitations.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: My Autoharp, never-ending paper, never-empty black ink pen, high capacity laptop and my recliner.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I've been writing music since I was 5 years old. I performed as a soloist since grade school, participated in school musicals and choirs in high school. I continued to perform as a soloist throughout college. Since then I have been in 3 duos and a Celtic band as well. My music was placed after my role as a single parent, but I continued to perform for weddings, coffee houses and festivals. I am now actively pitching to TV and Film.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: A beautiful combination of vocal, instrumentation, intent, authenticity, a blending of power and tenderness, and heart.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Use live musicians whenever possible!
Q: What's your strongest skill?
