A life without passion is a life not worth living

About Me

Athletic, fun loving, open and free spirited. A rocker chick down to my toes. I grew up in Amish country, Pennsylvania and made my escape to the Big Apple at 18. I danced professionally in New York for two years, starting out riding the beginning of the music video wave with Billy Idol, Michael Jackson, Rod Stewart. I loved my life as a dancer- loved the openness of the dance community and their sincerity. My favorite job was dancing with Cher on tour for 4 years and having the incredible life changing experience of traveling the world. College followed as I realized my love for acting was really a fascination with psychology and how complicated we all are. My children taught me I had so much more to learn in that direction and gave me a break from my own pursuits to learn what selflessness is. Creativity can only be put aside for so long and now I design jewelry, divinityjewelry.com, inspired by Gothic architecture, rock and roll, life. Dream on...
