About Me

I'm a Brooklyn born & raised Nuyorican (Puerto Rican from NY) I moved to Nashville 8 yrs ago. I started songwriting & doing music on the side in NY and then met some musician friends here in Nashville who suggested I come check it out...been here since. Who knew I'd like it so much...Definitely surprised me:) But now I feel like I have two homes NY (always) & now Nashville.There are a whole lot of sides to my personality...I'm friendly, sweet, affectionate, extremely talkative, passionate, opinionated, quirky, sarcastic, a bit of a wise ass with close friends;-), sensitive, complete girly girl & city girl, strong, hot tempered, confrontational, and loyal to a fault. I'm very straightforward...Basically what you see is what you get. I wear my heart on my sleeve, don't know if thats a good thing or not...time will tell, but thats me.And most of all I love my family and friends they are such a big part of who I am...they take second place only after God, who is the biggest part of my heart & life.

My Interests

I love all the of the following - Anything chocolate! Music, Concerts and Listening to Live Music in small venues. I'm a complete Movie junkie. Love rollercoasters, nothing better than amusement parks in the summer. Dancing especially Salsa and Merengue (its in my blood!) Soho (NYC). Traveling. Shopping. Bowling, Games, TV and other forms of useless pop culture entertainment...its fun, thats it purpose:) And most of all I love hanging out with friends. Whether its a girls night, hanging with the boys or curled up on my cozy couch watching a movie or having some really great conversations (cause I like to talk...as most of you know).MY CALIFORNIA TRIP Thanks to all of you who made it so much fun:)

I'd like to meet:

REAL FRIENDS ONLY. I DON'T ADD STRANGERS TO MY FRIEND'S LIST. Sorry but I'm on here strictly to keep in contact with people who I already know.

Music:

I like all types of music rock/pop/r&b/salsa. My favorite style would definitely be rock and singer/songwriter like...Sarah Mclachlan, Lifehouse, Incubus, Matchbox Twenty, Tonic, Dishwalla, Nirvana, Oasis, The Fray, Maroon 5, Augustana, John Mayer, Kelly Clarkson, Switchfoot, Foo Fighters, Goo Goo Dolls, U2, Gavin DeGraw, Coldplay, Gin Blossoms, Train, Joss Stone, Alicia Keys, Marc Anthony, Ricky Martin, Santana, Shakira to name a few:) And last but never least FLOREZ & all my other amazing Local Indie Artist friends here in Nashville...you're talent blows me away & you're far better than most artists on the radio. All the 80's and 90's singers and bands (They were the soundtrack of my life growing up.)Basically anything with great lyrics and good music:)

Movies:

My top favorites-The Lord Of the Ring Trilogy and Pirates of the Carribean...never get tired of seeing them:) Other faves Only You, Princess Bride, Bridget Jones's Diary, Hitch, The Patriot, X-Men, Mr and Mrs Smith, Benny and Joon, Ghost. Anything with Vince Vaugh from Swingers to Fred Clause the man just makes me laugh my ass off:) I like a pretty big variety - comedies, especially romantic comedies, dramas, war flicks, thrillers, action flicks (as long as there is a real plot not just blowing stuff up) Not big on horror flicks except the Scream Trilogy...love those!

Television:

Favorite show of all times is FRIENDS! I watch the reruns and still laugh hysterically. Other all time faves ROSWELL, Felicity....(WB dramas are a guilty pleasure of mine) My current fave is LOST. I'm completely obsessed with it...best thing on TV!

Books:

The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis, Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, Walking on Water by Madaline L'Engle, Angelwalk & Fallen Angel by Roger Elwood

Heroes:

God and My parents are my greatest heroes....they've done and sacrificed more for me than I could ever hope to repay. They're example has truly shaped who I am.

Head hung low Her eyes turn away Try not to reveal What her heart's trying to say The desperate cries From a battered soul She feels she's to blame So she won't let anyone know She's.... Li...
