It was here she was discovered by a modeling agent on the Champs-Élysées, and after three years of modeling, she decided to become a singer and an actress.

Cindy immediately caught the attention of star maker Jason Flom, who lent his skills and developed her performance level to that of pure professionalism. Understanding that her songs were at the heart of who she was and would be the center of her career, Cindy signed with world renowned publisher Cherry Lane Music (home of superstars such as The Black Eyed Peas, John Legend, and David Cook). Currently, Cindy is working with top level producers from the US and Europe in preparation for a 2010 release.
