Songwriting became a passion early on in Mary Beth’s childhood... It wasn’t until many years later, however, that she landed a personal assistant position with the world renowned songwriter/producer Desmond Child in Miami Beach. Along with a score of exciting co-writes stemming from her work for Desmond, her greatest thrill came in welcoming Ricky Martin to the recording session for his internationally acclaimed “Livin’La Vida Loca” penned by Desmond Child and Robi Draco Rosa. Inspired by her work under Desmond, Mary Beth later followed her heart to Nashville, where she focused on fine tuning her craft writing for the contemporary Christian and country markets. After some twists and turns in her personal life, Mary Beth began to sense a clear calling to missions. A 2006 mission trip to Ethiopia inspired a compelling, true story song, "My Very Own Room" as well as the non-profit for orphans, “Formula One Life” which Mary Beth founded and directed for nearly ten years.
