Summer is an award-winning singer-songwriter, actress, and music teacher, known for her powerful vocals and ability to connect with diverse audiences. She discovered her passion for singing at a young age when she performed her first solo, "Tomorrow" by The Winans, in church. It was then that she realized her superpower - the ability to touch hearts and minds through music.

Before pursuing a career in music, Summer worked for the federal government as an attorney. However, she felt a deep calling to follow her dreams and pursue a career in the arts. As a single mom to two amazing sons, she faced numerous challenges but remained determined to honor her calling as an artist and a mother. Despite limited resources, Summer worked multiple gigs, pursued further education, and maintained a strong presence in her sons' lives. 

Summer's inspirational album, "Love Letters," made a strong impact upon its release, debuting in the Top 50 of the Billboard Gospel Charts. Two of her singles, "Promised (Never Alone)" and "I Need You," gained international recognition and received widespread radio play. She has performed as a featured soloist for the syndicated National Cherry Blossom Parade, lent her soulful voice to Howard County Executive Calvin Ball's reinstallation, and showcased her acting skills in stage plays like "Hair" and "The Comedy of Errors." Summer's powerful renditions of the national anthem and "God Bless America" closed out the "Thanks Obama" event on President Obama's last night in office.

Continuing her musical journey, Summer recently released two new singles, "It Is Finished" and "Safe." "It Is Finished" is a powerful ballad that serves as a reminder of God's transforming power even in the most desperate situations. "Safe" is a melodious praise song celebrating God's loving care for His children and a prayer for completeness, joy, and security.

Summer's remarkable talent has often been compared to renowned artists such as CeCe Winans, Tramaine Hawkins, Whitney Houston, and Audra McDonald. She aims to honor these incredible artists while also using her own unique voice to change the world through music, drawing hearts to God's love, joy, hope, and peace.
 

Her exceptional talent and dedication have been recognized with multiple awards, including the 2022 BroadwayWorld Hawaii Award Runner-up for Best Supporting Performer in a Musical, the 2022 Maryland Teacher of Promise from Loyola University Maryland, the 2021 Arts & Humanities Award from Howard Community College, and the 2021 Kennedy Center American College Theatre Festival's Musical Theatre Intensive Outstanding Vocalist. Additionally, she was a runner-up for the Irene Ryan Acting Scholarship and named the 2018 ACHI Magazine Songstress of the Year. Summer was also a semifinalist for the Bernard/Ebb Songwriting Awards in 2017.

Academically, Summer has earned several degrees with honors. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics and Japanese from Emory University, a Juris Doctorate from the University of Virginia School of Law, and an Associates degree in Music (Vocal Performance) from Howard Community College. In 2021, she faced a car accident that left her feeling debilitated both physically and emotionally. However, with God's grace and her unwavering perseverance, she overcame her challenges and earned a Master of Arts in Teaching for Music Education from Loyola University Maryland with a 4.0 GPA and esteemed awards.

Despite her numerous accomplishments, Summer considers her most treasured ministry to be her role as a mother to her two talented teenage sons. She continues to inspire others with her music and hopes to make a lasting impact through her powerful voice and heartfelt lyrics.
