New to Taxi: Let’s start with “Hello”

Post by MandyDuke » Wed Feb 06, 2019 7:12 pm

Hi All,

After reading a bit more on the informal protocol I want to make sure I dot the i’s. :D

My name is Amanda Anderson but I go by Mandy Duke in honor of my dad’s family. Born in a Navy hospital in Virginia, but raised in a rural community in Ohio I have watched the corn grow. I love to dance (although I’m
not any good) and love to sing even more. I took piano lessons for about 5 years and would like to learn guitar. My main goal is to collaborate with musicians and exchange the energy that comes with it. I am a strong believer that anything can happen if you work hard enough, and you can count on me to help you too.

Goals in life: (because dreams were made to be big)
1. Have a healthy family
2. Create radio-worthy music
3. Be the voice for an animated film character
4. Publish a book

Happy to be here!

-Mandy
