You gotta take that chance to dance!

About Me


Student at Ohio University with a huge love for fashion - particularly dresses and high heels - and music, especially supporting the local DIY punk scene. I'm a radio DJ for ACRN.com and even have my own radio show. I collect a lot of punk records. Main goal in life is to get out of the deep hole I've been struggling to escape and make it big in the fashion industry through writing or designing...whichever comes first. I'm a social butterfly when I'm out and about, though I usually prefer being by myself most of the time. I don't fancy crazy college parties as much as I used to. I'm developing in skills and creativity for the bags I currently make, and will later teach myself how to make outfits to succeed in creating, what I vision, "the perfect look". If anyone has a heavy duty sewing machine lying around the house, collecting dust, please don't hesitate to donate to me. I'll make you something in return.
