Gale began her musical journey in the Phillippines with conservatory work at the age of 5. With her love of American music she moved to the United States and began a successful career as a piano bar artist. She spent two decades in nightclubs all over the U.S. and Europe, including a 2-year stint at the Landmark Hotel, Las Vegas where owner, Howard Hughes, built her a piano bar. She then went on to have another piano bar built for her at the Disneyland Hotel in the 80's. During this time she memorized over 5,000 songs and obtained a degree in piano performance from Cal State Fullerton.

After retiring from club work, she turned her focus to teaching all music styles for organ and piano. She spent 5 years at the Organ Exchange and then went on to Steve Lynn's Piano City Music School where she remained for 10 years. Gale was honored in 1999 in the Inland Empire Magazine as one of the teachers who has made a difference! In 2001, her advanced teaching methods were featured in Roland Keyboard magazine.

"Christmas in Brazil" (penned with Ray Evans) was featured in ABC WORLD NEWS TONIGHT with host Brian Rooney concluding that, "We haven’t had any classic Christmas songs written in the last three decades. Christmas in Brazil might just be the next classic Christmas song”.

Gale is involved in many charitable organizations including the Southern California Arthritis Foundation, Veterans of World War, and the Screaming Eagles, and has received awards from the City of Los Angeles and the County Board of Supervisors for her devotion to these causes through music. She donates a portion of her CD sales to The Good Shephard Convent in the Phillippines to help ease the suffering of sexually abused girls, and regularly brings her students to convalescent homes and hospitals such as City of Hope.

She was the event coordinator and producer of the annual showcases for the Songwriters Guild of America for seven years, and also helped produce two successful fundraising showcases for the famed L.A. musical landmark, The World Stage Gallery.

A three-time recipient of the ASCAP Plus Award, Gale continues to collaborate with songwriters, and is currently working on a tribute book about her musical life with Ray Evans.
