Some folks were raised by cartoons or sports. Caitlin was raised by jazz.

Caitlin's love and passion for the art of all forms jazz started in 1997 in a small, blue China kitchen in Sauganash, Chicago. Her Nana, Mary Ellen, would sing everything from Doris Day to Ella Fitzgerald to Frank Sinatra and the rest while she baked her world-famous green apple pie. It was one of Nana's dreams to sing in a club one day.

From those early days in the city, Caitlin's love for music grew. She currently resides in Los Angeles where she looks forward to performing in as many jazz clubs as she can, for Nana.
