About Me

CONTACT ME: [email protected] or www.myspace.com/mishumediaMichèle Toro, a.k.a. “Michiewah”, is a New York City-based freelance writer, promoter and consultant, and founder of Mishu Media. An Afro-Caribbean Nuyorican raised in the East Bronx, Michèle provides promotional and editorial consulting services. Her aim is to keep Mishu Media as a “boutique” venture, building a small yet strong group of clientele, taking a more personal interest in the development of their projects. As the former Associate Editor of Mía Magazine, a Latino lifestyle publication, Michèle has written various reviews on nightlife, music and literary publications, as well as featured articles and poetry. She has also collaborated with Sonny Sofrito, an event planner and promoter from Spanish Harlem, on the development of party venues catering to upscale Latino New Yorkers for more than a decade. To date, Michèle has partnered with DJ Eman and DJ Spider to promote INDIGO and has co-hosted La India’s 2006 Halloween Masquerade Ball featuring guest DJ Louie Vega. Other collaborations include DJ/Producer Mr. Cubanix, DJ Markus Rice “The Music Man”, KhaiMar Music, and the monthly underground house music party EVOLVE. Michèle currently is the resident advice columnist for “Dear Michie” at Blacktino.net, and the press and media coordinator for Rawcast Radio 920. As her projects continue to flourish, Michèle will continue to write independently, with the goal to publish a compilation of poetry and freestyle prose in upcoming years. Her commitment to nourishing Mishu Media in 2008 and beyond will prove to be a lifelong goal and aspiration, bringing forth the beauty of the arts of all forms, and sharing in its collaborative force an accessible medium to be appreciated by people of all cultures.©2008 Mishu Media, all rights reserved.

My Interests

My recipe calls for 2 parts ingenuity, 1 part insanity and 1 part mischief. Mix well in a pot and simmer at low heat. Add 1 cup of love, 1/2 cup of sensitivity, 1 cup of self-respect, and a generous sprinkling of attitude. Bring to a boil and serve. When served hot, expect a lot of tough love and honesty. When served warm, expect lots of laughs and hugs, and a shoulder to lean on. When served cold, expect a death threat.

Music:

House music was my first crush, and will always be my one true love. I'm also a fan of various types of music - hip hop, afro-caribbean, flamenco, rock, metal, reggae, soca, anything that will transport me to the innermost of my consciousness. I'll give anything a fair shake. I LOVE PERCUSSION
