Her slightly raspy singing voice has been sought out by major film studios, television producers and national commercial producers. She has entertained America as the songwriter and vocalist for ABC's "America’s Funniest Home Videos" theme song for nearly three decades.  For three consecutive years, she sang ABC’s network theme song "Something's Happening Here on ABC". She also performed Kenny Loggin's "Celebrate Me Home" for the Disney Channel’s network theme. Her national TV and radio commercials include Toyota, Coca-Cola, McDonald’s, Coors Beer, Burger King, Oldsmobile, Taco Bell, Chevrolet, Glidden Paint, and many more.

Jill travels around the world singing and performing her songs.  Performing Arts Centers, Theatres, House Concerts and Churches are among her favorite venues. She also enjoys speaking at workshops and special events.

Although Jill has enjoyed much commercial success, she has also experienced great loss.  She refers to this period in her life as “The Lost Decade”. During this time, her music changed, her heart was opened more fully, and her songs became the vehicles for her healing.  Her new CD, “Heal My Heart” is an expression of her triumph over loss and the manifestation of her new path in life.  Jill is dedicating these songs to all those who have experienced any kind of loss in their lives, hoping to prove that when words fail, music speaks.
