About Me

I am looking for available merch gigs. Please contact me if you need someone to run your merch for your upcoming tour. If you are not on MySpace, feel free to email me at [email protected]. Rates and general information is located in my Networking section at the bottom left of my profile.
I'm just a happy-go-lucky caffeine dependant girl who likes to laugh and lives to love. I am one of the managers at Jaxx Nightclub, and when I'm not doing that I run merch for touring bands. If you're ever there for a show, stop by and say hello. If you need a good merch girl, drop me a line. I'd love to help out!
I am the mother of an AWESOME teenaged daughter that would make any parent jealous. Seriously, she’s uber cool and I’m damned lucky to have her. I challenge you to find a kid better than her. Check her profile out. She's the first person in my top friends.
I am a voracious reader and committed news junkie. I love good political debate, and I’m not afraid to give you my (correct) opinion on the state of the world.
For fun, I go to a shit ton of concerts and have the time of my life. If you're curious as to which shows I'm going to be going to, check out my calendar listing below. If you happen to be going to the same show and want to hang out, drop me a line and we can make plans! First round of drinks is always on me.
I’m on the Roadrunner Records road crew promotions team, and if there’s a RR band in the area, most likely you’ll see me handing out swag after a show. This has allowed me to meet some amazing bands, and if you want to check all the fun I've had I have a ton of pictures. I've also been able to randomly meet and befriend other bands, and if you'd like to see who, head over to their album in my pictures area. As for bands I've personally promoted, I’ve had the good fortune of working with some awesome bands – HIM, The 69 Eyes, Epica, Private Line, Negative, and many others.
I am the East Coast Rep for Dead By Dawn Promotions and Marketing out of California. Marci and Erin are two remarkable women that have done a whole hell of a lot for more bands than you can possibly imagine. I'm honored to be entrusted with carrying out their exacting demands here on the Right Coast.
I am a witch. No, not a green skinned old hag with a wart on my nose. I am a Wiccan practitioner, and it is a belief system that I hold close to my heart. And before you try to convert me to your religion, just remember: I DO believe in God. I just also believe in Goddess as well.
Well, that’s about it. I’m pretty approachable, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

YOU!

Single Again

Well, as most of you may already know Chris and I decided to end our relationship the other night.  Actually, I should restate that.  We decided to end our romantic relationship, not our friendship.  ...

Why is it.....

.....that everyone you love thinks you're the best thing that's happened to them except for the one that you want to feel that way?

Everything falls apart in the end

And yet, for reasons that escape logic, I still, as usual, remain hopeful.  Even with all the evidence in the universe to the contrary, and absolutely no way of turning things around.  I still, pathet...

Why The U.S. Car Company Bailout Won't Work

It seems like the catch-word in politics these days is "bailout".  Everyone is getting bailed out, from financial institutions to airlines to lending companies and now automakers.  And I'm really not ...
