Hi, I’m Aleshia Turner. I’m a versatile musician with decades of performing and collaborating across venues, studios, and private events. I love crafting fresh arrangements, expanding a diverse repertoire, and engaging audiences, while also supporting others through mentorship and community work. I’m equally passionate about caregiving and client-centered service, bringing empathy, patience, and practical support to people and families in need. I’m currently pursuing music production studies and animal sciences, and I’m open to relocating to the Rock Island/Davenport/Moline area to blend creativity with new opportunities. I value teamwork, learning, and bringing creative energy to every project. Whether on stage, in a studio, or at a client’s home, I aim to deliver reliable, high-quality contributions and foster a collaborative, friendly atmosphere.
