About Me

I'm more than a bit scattered, and I'm graceful in the same way a kitten pretends to be after falling off a bookshelf. I giggle when I'm nervous......Um so I giggle a lot. I have a tendency to be obscenely passionate about everything I feel is remotely worth bothering with. As a result of this, I've become of jack of all trades, master of only a couple. At least I'm rarely bored. A couple years ago, I decided to move to London to further my education and maybe find a nice studio to work in. I have since graduated and am now applying for post-grad programmes. This is very exciting, but not something I ever thought I'd do. In September 2007 I moved back to NYC to work at the audio engineering school I attended and find it very fulfilling to help other people learn about the one thing I'm most passionate about. My life has revolved around SAE and audio for about 6 years now and they've been the most amazing years of my life. I also write music when I have the energy to do so- mixing my career & my hobby kinda had an odd effect on my creativity, but I seem to be getting my groove back. I have two kitties that love me very much- their names are Zarathustra and Rembrandt. Zara has lived in 2 US states and drove cross country in a U-Haul truck with me once. Remmy was born in my Brooklyn, NY apartment on July 27th 2005 and called California home for a few months. They are two of my favourite people in the world and flew 5,422 miles to be with me in London, then flew 3,470 miles from there back to NYC with me. They're very well traveled cats.
