Artist History A native of San Francisco, Doris spent most of her formative years in Jamaica, West Indies. After a series of events, she rededicated her life to God and startyed over again. The testimony of God's grace and love throughout some of her struggles along the way has been a source of encouragement to many others. She uses her voice to minister to inmates in various prisons and wherever else God opens the door. Doris seeks to inspire others that, by faith, they too can experience that new beginning in Christ. First and foremost, Doris is the mother of two boys, Jason and Brandon, who keep her busy and happy.
