My passion for songwriting started at young age, and has walked with me throughout my life.

The eternal search for a heart-aching melody or an honest line that speaks a universal truth.

​

 I have had the pleasure of collaborating with writers like Robin Trower (Blues/Rock guitarist) Chris Neil (Celine Dion, Rod Stewart and Mike and the Mechanics Producer) and Martin Sutton (Back Street Boys, Leann Rimes) among others and continue to write with many up and coming writers through songwriting communities and on songwriting retreats.

​

Retreat, country pop duo, has also been a great collaboration with Marianne, in which we continue to work on original songs and acoustic covers through Tristar Records on all digital platforms. Find your favourite here:

I also compose ambient instrumental music and more recently have been collaborating on music for use in our local church.
