About Me

Wow where to start, filipino immigrant with chinese and spanish mix moved to canada at 1, lived on several native indian reservations across Canada. Lived in Montreal, Vancouver and Whitehorse Yukon where I happily endured hauling my own water, chopping my own wood and 22 hours of darkness in the winter , 22 hours of sunlight in the summer. I am a professional actress and tv storyline producer as well as a drama for human development facilitator. For the last 8 years I have made my home in Guadalajara Mexico where I worked as an anthropologist with a concentration on mexican dance masks ... was the head of the theatre department at a very fresa english school here in GDL, I love my students they inspire me everyday.... and last but not least I have this cute retro clothing store... called the cube....in the beautiful HILO showroom.. a very nice view of the city of guadalajara... come and visit me... madera 385 piso 6 ....god I sound busy....my life is actually quite layed back, I spend many time having a good meal with friends , philosophysing or just plain reading a good book. I believe in the power of word, of self actualization and working on one..s autonomy. I try to see the god in all individuals and hopefully put out some good vibes of respect and heart stuff in the process. I love to cook, dance and scream tearful lyrics , and when I have a special someone , I love to love them as best that I can.... thats me
