About Me


I admit, I am a bit of an anomaly: 4 parts Angela D, 4 parts Dihann Carroll and a few splashes of LL's around the way girl for good measure....Extremely driven, comfortable in my own skin, grounded in my purpose and ever evolving. I'm a corporate communications and media relations executive and I love every minute of it. I'm a lover of Hip Hop (with all of its idiosyncrasies), African dance, martial arts (I took tae kwon do in college and really enjoyed it and have dabbled in the African-based martial arts system Kupigana Ngumi which ROCKS. I don't have much time these days but may try to delve deeper into it soon.), Danish butter cookies, poetry, warm weather, African and Diasporic art, news of freed PP's (free 'em all!!!), graf coffee table books, smart 'n beautiful brothas with GOOD hands, traveling, my friends, my family, shoe shopping, tulips and a few other things that are GUARANTEED to bring a smile to my face every time including putting DREAMS INTO ACTION.
Born in the August sun I am SUCH a LEO..
WHAT DOES MY BIRTH SIGN REVEAL? LET'S SEE:
AUGUST-LEO: Leos were born to lead and are most effective when in a position of command. Leos are straightforward, uncomplicated individuals who know what they want and pursue it with enthusiasm and a creative spirit. Leos possess a strong positive nature and don't shrink from adverse circumstances. They are not easily daunted, and will persist through the most formidable circumstances.
Leos are proud people, with an idealistic and humane nature. They are basically outgoing, happy, kind and generous. Self expressive, intelligent and broad minded, they are philosophically inclined. They tend to be stubborn, and will hold onto a belief, or stick to a course of action through thick or thin. They are direct and to the point and lead with their emotions. Because of their positive nature, they tend to expect the best, and when things don't turn out as they had expected, they react immediately and badly. Quick tempered, blunt and nasty when they have been affronted, they are deeply hurt by malice or hostility. Although, they may suffer from short bouts of depression when life doesn't meet their expectations, they bounce back quickly and move on with their normal cheerful and demonstrative nature. Leo walks forward always, head held proudly and face turned towards the sun.
Leos like to live on a grand scale. First class is the only way to go and luxury is comfort. In professional life, they do well in a career where there is room at the top. In the political arena, they keep going until they reach a powerful position in government. In business, you can find Leos in the president or chairman's office or on the Board of Directors. They always strive for a position of leadership. They are excellent organizers, managers and leaders. Many of them go into business for themselves. They are ambitious by nature, and prefer to take charge and delegate. Leos possess a strong creative and dramatic bend, and you will find many in the theater and film industry. They become stars of stage or screen, talented musicians, or well known painters. Whatever they choose, it will usually be in the lime lite, first row, center stage.Changes may take up to 2 mins to show on your profileLOVEMYFLASH CODE
