Sharon picked up the guitar at the age of nine and began learning classical guitar and voice.

Sharon learned to play all the concert band instruments, became a NJ certified music teacher and taught middle school band for fifteen years. Sharon always felt called to express her voice through songwriting at a very early age and continued to compose original music throughout her career as a way to express emotion and cleanse what was a traumatic childhood. As a result of her first experience with Yoga in 2002, she was inspired by the chanting and began the Bhakti path of devotion.
