After a few years of studying classical voice, she shifted her focus from the opera hall to jazz theaters and began studying jazz at Texas Southern University.

Having now taken her talents to elite venues around the world such as Santorini, Greece & Paris, France, Ki’Ora Michelle is a Houston favorite for event planners and corporations looking for a vocal show stopper. As a classically trained jazz singer, Ki’Ora brings the dynamics of a hip,r&b tone married with a traditional swing & bebop scat to jazz, soul, and contemporary music alike.
