About Me


I'm skinny.

I like to sing.

I seldom use my "inside voice."

I don't sleep much.

I don't like to wear much more than a pair of pants, and seldom that.

To say that I'm a bad influence is a bit of an understatement.

I am the vocalist for The Homos and Glitter Engine.

I love the color red.

Performing is my most favorite thing in the world.

If there's anything better than a little skinny girl with piercings and/or tatoos, I haven't found it yet.

I have skulls in my room that aren't in my head.
