I'm very particular, why do you ask? :-/

About Me

..
Born and raised in Chicago, the middle child, daddy's girl, very blunt (straight forward). If your feelings are hurt easily go pass my page to another. I am very competitive, don't care much for losing, though am a gracious loser when it happens. I play pool, chess, self proclaimed culinary goddess, an avid reader, love the water, extremely picky about anything that concerns me, i.e., food, friends, clothes, men, etc.
Also have an intense love of language, all kinds, but especially... body, English, French (family ties), Italian, Japanese, Mandarin, German (family ties), and Spanish. I have studied 4 from this group. ^.^
High possibility of finishing the other degree at DePaul, since there is only one year left (dble major in Int'l Studies and Poli Sci... Pre Law focus).
A college graduate with a degree in graphic design (Fall 2005) and eager to make an imprint on the world. Currently interested to the freelance/independent contractor side of things as most of my work is such (art,sketch, fit, runway and promotional model/emcee/hostess).
SKILLED with Macs, Illustrator, Photoshop, Quarkxpress, Acrobat Reader, Lightwave, Final Cut Pro, After Effects, Flash, HTML, Director and my pencil/pen/marker/paintbrush to wall/paper/canvas.

Portfolio images viewable in my blog!


What is your sexual appeal?

My Interests

Oy! So many interest so little time to experience them all... BUT enjoy one of my favorite pics, by Hajime Sorayama. ="}

I'd like to meet:

Send a message to me and have your page viewable, not private before you request me as a friend, I don't add random people. That is all.

For friends: Anyone--Any sex, any age, any race, so long as you understand the use of the English language. Slang is an acquired taste, so if that's your main source of speech, don't bother.

For business: Mostly for artistic modeling, product specialist, market managing, resume writing, and graphic design (though not as much as I'd like) --- no pornography, thanks.

Music:

All types, really, I enjoy all kinds of music including the tunes from F. Listz, Lenny Kravitz, Miles Davis, Madonna, Cole Porter, Coldplay, Portishead, Daft Punk, etc. The Ocean's 12 soundtrack is nice also.

Your Inner Retro Girl Is
1970s Disco Diva What Retro Girl Are You? Most definitely, I am a child of the seventies and remember early memories of watching Star Wars at the movies when it first came out... think I was 2 or 3 years old then. ="}

Movies:

Let's see.. I prefer quality horror, Japanese thrillers, and British films, but I can watch just about any genre and any language... I don't mind subtitles. To name a few, Snatch, Saving Grace, Ju-On, The Incredibles, Blue, Lord of the Rings series, Reign of Fire, Godfather series, Hellboy, Akira, Five Deadly Venoms, Death Takes A Holiday, Alias Nick Beal, etc. And newly added Children of Men & V, both had absolutely fantastic scripts.

Television:

Heroes (a living comic book), My Name is Earl, Frasier, House, The Amazing Race, Alias, CSI, Law & Order, Vegas, South Park, Family Guy, Big O, Heroes, Dragon Ball Z, Smallville, etc.Imports: Are You Being Served?, Vicar of Dibley, Waiting for God, Dr. Who.

Books:

hm, how about authors instead... Shakespeare, Sophocles, Del Jones, J.A.Rogers, Zadie Smith, Maya Angelou, Nikki Giovanni, Tom Wolfe, John Grisham, Agatha Christie,Benjamin Hoff, Christina Garcia, Richard Wright, Chinua Achebe, etc.

Heroes:

I'm still working on my relationship with God. Although also my grandparents, parents and those teachers you remember (for good reasons and all the work they made you do... even when you didn't want to). These people stick to your psyche like industrial strength glue and last for a lifetime of memories.

My Blog

Every now and again I am taken by certain films...

Voila!  In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran cast vicariously as both victim and villan by the vicissitudes of fate.  This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi ...

Graphic Design samples... I know it's about time.

Well since I am using this for friends and networking.  I figure it's about time I place samples of work on the site.  And I like my personal images so in my blog it goes. Email me...
