About Me
follow SupaSista at http://twitter.com
I am a lover of arts and culture. I read everything. This includes magazines, books, journals, emails, blogs, coffee mugs, and the back panels of cereal boxes. I can be found at an open mic, a rally for social justice, a museum, a dance class, a club until 2am, or a pre-school bake sale. You might catch me in a business suit looking really corporate, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm a Puma sporting, Bob Marley t-shirt rocking, sage burning, hip-hop loving diva, who can also get down in some fly heels and a short skirt if the need should arise. The bottom line is that with a book or an ipod full of house, hip-hop (predominantly Talib Kweli--he's my husband, he just doesn't know it), jazz, R&B, spoken word, and Fela Kuti, I'm in heaven.
I can't stand war, cigarette smoke, roaches, Bush, fake people, and dust. Peanut Butter breaks me out, but I often eat it anyway. I am slightly obsessive compulsive, but I am also laid back. No, I don't go around making sure picture frames aren't crooked and curtains are lined up (okay, I used to). I do like things neat though.
My slew of skills includes graphic design, teaching tap/hip-hop dancing, writing, marketing, public relations, grant writing, volunteer coordination, project management, strategic planning, event planning, fundraising, scrapbooking and anything else I put my mind to.
Anything else you want to know, you'll have to ask me over green tea. :)--Myshell
