About Me

artistic, not easily impressed,honest, very aware, a bit mean if provoked, and phobic of far too many things, like germs even though I live in nyc. I can be completely overwhelmed by the tiniest things for better or worse. And if you use the word "party" as an verb in front of me there is a good chance that Im thinking about what it would feel like to kill you.

But this I love:

My Interests


Zack, my cats, Hasselblad cameras, Hasselblad everything,black and white photography, color photography, music, green design, architecture, mehndi designs, celtic knotwork,drawing, painting, film editing, modern design, B.C., the UK, psychology, sociology,music, seeing if peace exists, avoiding stupid dramas, psychology, sociology, traveling when possible, Red lipstick, seeing how pale I can become, knee high boots, vintage jackets, books, journals, vintage snapshots, the snow, trying to save me and everyone I know from themselves, really cold weather, mandalas, finding ways to get Italian food cooked for me, Italian glasswork, seeing how far I can push things, and of course as always how to always move forwards opposed to backwards. Getting the fuck out of New York for good.

and sometimes, just sometimes when the mood strikes me I take photos...
