Most recently, Jordan has captivated the world with her latest releases “Open the Eyes of My Heart” and her debut live recording experience album, “ONE". Jordan’s transcendent gift, versatility and innovative approach to programming and presenting music are only rivaled by the lasting effect it has on her multicultural, multi-generational audience.Although music drives her passion, Jordan is a proud native of Pittsburgh and displays the same precision and skill as a brilliant chemical engineer. She is a full package of technical savvy and warm talent: a gifted vocalist, skilled choir director, accomplished musician, and a powerful songwriter.Links: Thank you to our sponsor, Writech!
