About VegasEd!
I am a Writer, promoter and marketing executive across several industries including just about All Things Las Vegas, tourism, entertainment, nightclubs, music, tradeshows, conventions, etc. Constantly managing ongoing projects including city guides, travel writing, television productions, music industry promotions, VIP hosting, and so on.
I have been named "THExpertINVEGAS" at Destination360.com , where I work to answer a plethora of quesions for you about Vegas and many others travel destinations worldwide. Come by the FORUMS and strike up a conversation or start a thread! . One of the coolest things about D360 is the virtual 360 degree views of Vegas. For those of you you that know me, this may sound familar to you as I had done similar work for Rain, ghostbar and venues at the Palms Hotel from 2002-2006.
One of my favorite pieces was an article on the nightlife in Vegas, entitled "The Search for The List", published in M Lifestyle Magazine. This is the in-house magazines located in all MGM-Mirage hotels and rooms with a readerships of approximately 1.46 million! (yea, that's BIG TIME BABY!). Coverage included Studio 54, Tabu, Teatro (now defunct), Coyote Ugly, Ra (now defunct) and more. Read the "Sizzling Summer Nightspots/In Search of The List" article for yourself here at M Lifestyle! Then post your comments here on MySpace and let me know what you think of it!

My Interests

MGMGrand Grand Opening AfterParty at SHRINE!

Vegas (of course), music, writing, and a bunch of cerebral crap that would probably bore ya, but I like to keep my mind sharp...it's my secret weapon! Meeting new people is the spice of life and tearing up Vegas with my friends is a given

I'd like to meet:

ANyone who can keep up! Can you? If you are the one who usually turns heads (either by your looks or your crazy antics), then you are so MY people. Only boring people are bored..that's my therory. Stir it up!Continuing to bring you the goodies in 08...watch for trips and visits to YOUR city as we tear it up Vegas style....

Well, I was lucky enough to meet Carmen Electra, Jenna McCarthy and Brooke Burke within a 3 hour window in Vegas for a red carpet event one day, SO the new list includes Vanessa Marcil of Las Vegas/NBC (saltry, mezmorizingly beautiul); Maria Sansone of the 9/Y! (how fun is she!); and Robin Meade of CNN's Robin & Company (no matter where I travel I always wake up with Robin!)...

Scroll below the events section and meet some of my friends: Don't cha wanna be a VE! girl? You know you do...there are definately perks involved (can someone say VIP guest list?)

Music:

I have been involved in working with, promoting and writing in the music industry including work with rockers Fuel, country artist Miranda Lambert (Sony Nashville) and a few others...

My love for music is shown as I mash a Breakbeat or House tune next to a Hard Rock song next to Hip Hop on my ipod...gotta love variety..it's the spice of life (in MOST things!....) God bless Sirius Radio! My cars never sounded so good!

Movies:

Ocean's Eleven, one of the best....Ocean's Thirteen brought it back to Sin City!...Rounders is a fav...21...What Happens In Vegas..

CineVegas is absolutely one of the best times of the year for movie buffs..nothing says indie films like CineVegas!

Television:

I have done casting for MTV (Tru Life), Mark Brunett Productions (The Casino), Howards Stern's Wack Pack, VH-1, Bravo, etc. ... Look for more casting calls from VegasEd!

Books:

One of my big ambitions is to put alot of my knowledge and stories into a travel related book somewhere down the road

Heroes:

Everyone has the potential to be a hero to someone...make it happen!
