She is a 2009 graduate of Boston's famed Berklee College of Music with a dual major in Electric Bass Performance and Music Business Management.

years in New England working as a bass player, vocalist and keyboardist for Boston's top award-winning wedding bands--along with many other musical pursuits. A musical collaboration with Jeff Clark inspired Claire to provide "big city" entertainment to the Florida Keys. Jeff Clark is a multi-instrumentalist hailing from Pennsylvania.
