After relocating from her birthplace Bloomington, Illinois to New Orleans with her family, "making up" songs at the piano and singing them for her church congregation became the norm at an early age. Consequently, Cynthia embarked on a path that led her to earn a Certificate of Music from the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts and complete her studies in Vocal Music Performance (Bachelor of Music) from Loyola University of New Orleans.

Realizing the purpose of her musical gifts, after college she founded LuvMo Music; literally "Love More," with the heart and intention of sharing "God's Love” through the music. Through Luvmo, she did her very first solo recording; recorded background vocals for many artists; recorded demonstrative vocals for musicals and shows; and recorded jingles for radio and television; ministered and performed with a number of choirs and chorales including the Moses Hogan Chorale. In addition to a significant number of other notable performances, including Mozart’s Duet Sull' aria, or "To Romeo" from The Marriage of Figaro with the New Orleans Symphony Orchestra, Cynthia has also been a guest vocalist in a Gospel Brunch episode of the Emeril Live Show.
