In addition to performing with many musical greats--among them Tito Puente, David "Fathead" Newman, Walter Bishop, Jr, Lester Bowie, and James Carter--she has been tapped for legacy roles such as Brooks Benton's duet partner (in Dinah Washington's former role) and the Doug Carn Black Jazz Legacy Band.
