It's been a long process but I'm so proud of the record. ?I've been given the opportunity to write an album that is reflective of me.

It all comes down to timing in this industry, and I believe that this is my time?. Leah was also selected to be in the 2007 national campaign for award winning jewelry designer Steven Zale.
