After years of honing her talent in churches, talent shows, and local concerts, she entered high school at Washington D.C.'s Duke Ellington School of the Arts. After graduating in 1997, she attended North Carolina Central University in Durham, North Carolina, where she received a full scholarship in the school's jazz program.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    Early to bed, early to rise, work like hell and organize.
    Albert Gore, Jr. (b. 1948)

    O life unlike to ours!
    Who fluctuate idly without term or scope,
    Of whom each strives, nor knows for what he strives,
    And each half lives a hundred different lives;
    Who wait like thee, but not, like thee, in hope.
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
