Leslie Person

I am a singer/songwriter and play piano and some guitar.  I started studying piano when I was 6 years old.  My mother wanted me to be able to read music as well as I could read English.  I was classically trained, and went on to study Music Therapy in college.
Music has always been a passion.  I wrote my first song when I was in college.  I feel blessed to have been influenced by some of the greatest songwriters of all time:  Carole King, James Taylor, Stevie Wonder, the Beatles, and more.  I feel like I was born at the perfect time.
I have always wanted to help people.  I am an eternal optimist.  Not that I haven't experienced deep hurt and pain, but I bounce back and "keep on swimming."  I have a lot of "positive life energy" in me - probably inherited from my mother, who raised us with unconditional love.
My greatest joy is in helping others.  My goals with my songs and with my music are to lift people up, add some sunshine to the world, and to help make the world a better place.
