I'm a southern woman, so grandma taught me how to cook. I'm a smart woman, and momma taught/encouraged me to read. I'm an articulate woman, daddy told me to speak my mind. The rest: (movies, visual/performance art, travel, music, cultural events, photography, writing, communicating, and being at the right place at the right time for a "New York Moment"), I picked up on my own.
I’d like to meet individuals that want to share their creativity with the world. I also want to meet people with budgets that can pay for my creativity (In the words of Melvin Van Peebles: “Don’t play us cheap!â€). I have high-minded objectives, which will one day benefit my community, but in the meantime (and for the sake of achieving these high-minded goals); I am on a serious paper chase. Note: Please send a message along with your friend request…pictures are worth a thousand words, but words let me know where you’re coming from.

My grandmother Nadine: She was a domestic for most of her life and barely a grammar school graduate, but her integrity and sense of style continues to inspire me.
