Hello Everyone! Its so great to finally be on here! I would cut and paste my more \"industry appropriate\" bio here that is available on my website... but I really just want to share my heart and have you get to know me a little bit.
I was born and raised in Norman, Oklahoma. I grew up in a Christian home with a wonderful family and great friends! I have been a Christian my entire life and have always loved the Lord.. but I always felt like there was so much more to God though then what I knew.. I have been singing and performing my entire life and started doing it professionally while in high school.. this eventually led me off to Boston where I attended and graduated from Berklee College of Music.
While in Berklee, I attended the Christian Fellowship there where the Lord filled me with His Spirit, over and over.. and my life began to change radically. I fell so in love with Him and became so on fire for Him. I started going to all the events and conferences and worship nights that I could find just to get more of His Presence! I met my husband Daniel while in school at Berklee. During my years there, we helped train local churches in worship and music and led worship at several large events.. I really started to feel the leading that this is what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.
Right after graduation, I started writing this album.. Now if I were to share the story and trials that it took to get this album out, there would not be enough room.. so I will shorten it and say.. it was extremely challenging, 2 whole productions, miracle after miracle, and God just giving us strength to go on and keep the vision! Yes, thats a very short version... But I do want to share what happened next.
After 3 years of working on this project.. just a month after I finally finished and we sent it off to print.. I had an accident. A mic went off during the middle of a live performance and I ended up with a vocal cord injury... it was very serious and acute. My vocal cords could not even shut anymore. The doctors sent me to the best doctor in the U.S. for this sort of thing in Chicago and I had to have immediate surgery. They said I may never be able to sing again.. During this time, as scary as it was, I can say that God gave me a peace that really was beyond my understanding or my families! I was totally silent for 3 months.. The doctor said the surgery was a success and there was no scarring.. I was so thrilled! But as I began to start to talk again, I had a lot of pain. I ended up going through 9 months of therapy to regain muscle strength.. and then vocal training.. I am telling you this to say that I am now healed!! And I am singing better with a stronger voice than ever before! This was a huge trial for me, but I was blessed with God\'s grace and got to experience first hand His healing power.
I am now ready to sing.. through all the trials, the silence, and the waiting..my heart was always filled with worship and that is something that no one can take away from you! No one can take your song or your joy when your hope is in Christ Jesus!
I have an album out called, \"Compelled.\" The purpose of my music is that it would touch God\'s heart, release His Presence, heal hearts and bodies, and bring the lost to Him.
God bless you and with lots of love,
Camila
