Uma began performing at age six in Texas. She impersonated Dolly Parton in the sixth grade, sang madrigals and musical theatre (played Golde in Fiddler On the Roof) in high school, and studied voice at a local college. She sang and danced in Die Fledermaus during college and sings in 5 languages. Uma was a featured vocalist for the pilot of “The Positive Place Television Talk Show.” Uma was the winner of the Great Arizona Talent Search which allowed her to perform with the 80-piece Flagstaff Symphony Orchestra. Uma has entertained thousands at seminars, workshops and churches in Phoenix, Sedona, Colorado Springs, San Diego, Los Angeles, Seattle, Texas, Virginia, Maryland and Washington, DC.

Uma feels blessed to have had the opportunity to record with major-label producer and song writer, John DeGrazio, on ‘You are my Light.’ Check out his work at www.johndegrazio.com. Working with him and with local, Jeff Owens, has been her most positive recording experiences so far. That freedom and joy shows in her covers of ‘Fantasy,’ ‘Lovin’ You,’ ‘Shackles,’ and the Agape (check out www.rickiebyars.com) tune ‘God is Enough,’ with Amy Conley on piano and back-up vocals. Her next moves include performing at local venues, promoting her first full length CD and due to popular request, returning to the studio to start a new cd.

She loves sharing her music because it helps to unify & uplift the planet and empower both herself and audiences. Uma uses her music, drama & dance background to assist youth in creating prevention performances at summer camps and during the school year. Currently she teaches after-school prevention classes, performing and arts & crafts summer camps and sings at several churches each month. Uma loves writing: plays with student input, grants for national non-profits, her first self-help book & a screenplay. To dive into the writing world, she’ll start by submitting magazine articles to assist her fellow sisters in ‘avoiding the playahs.’

In '06 she completed a Master’s degree in Education, with the future goal of becoming an assistant principal, principal and eventually headmaster of a school or learning center for body, mind & spirit. Assisting people of all ages find & do what they love while creating a juicy life is her overall goal.
