About Me

Does anyone actually read this?? Usually I go right for the pictures - especially when faced with an About Me of discouraging length. I'll try to spare you an episcle, as Rich would say. I'm a New York based actor and print model, with a degree in Economics; grew up mostly in Philadelphia; a Landmark graduate; a procrastinator; a dreamer; a risk-taker; a nomad. Physically a cross between Venus and Serena. I feel sexiest when exuding more masculine energy. Words mean a lot to me - I'm a word nit-picker. Okay, I'll admit I'm a spelling bee champ. I can be very shy (and misperceived as unfriendly). I most look forward to creating my own opportunities, so I'm writing. I'm first-generation West Indian-American (Jamaica/Dominica) and can still understand a little French patois if I pay really close attention. I am passionate and opinionated without being self-righteous or inconsiderate, currently on a deliberate quest to live positively, powerfully and presently. That's Me! :)My IMDB page: http://imdb.com/name/nm1892399/

I might have to shave my head
