My Interests

professionally I'm a graphic designer / currently working as a creative director for a record label / taking photos and blogging for Frolab / with dreams that include a flagship store for Frolab products and art, living on the ocean (again), traveling this amazing planet, mothering life of many kinds, seeking and maintaining peace & staying true to my internal compass

I'd like to meet:

whoever it was that i was in my past lives... and whoever i will be in the future...

Music:

anything that doesn't give me a headache, or haunt me in my sleep. & i have a preference towards real instruments. and people who really play them.

Movies:

good ones. love stories. revenge flix. tear jerkers. i miss the $1 movie theater though.

Television:

my reality faves include Top Model, Project Runway, really any Bravo show, Iconoclasts, and Oprah! & don't sleep on the Dog Whisperer!

Books:

got a new found love for audiobooks on my ipod - great stress reliever during rush hour traffic. however, i think they should let u choose a voice to listen to - sometimes the author's voice sucks! but then i could just read the book and hear my own voice huh?

Heroes:

professional artists of any kind, do it yourselfers & my ridiculously talented frolaborators
