I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

an actor, activist, Pagan living my life and manifesting the world I want. It's a hell of a lot of fun. I'm a bit of a gypsy; traveling and creating in NYC, NJ, Chicago, Seattle, California and currently, Portland.I listen to the Universe and my heart.

My Interests

Settling in to myself and nesting with my love. Awaiting new adventures. :) I love to travel, read, lie on the earth and look at the stars, swim in the ocean...I love making masks and performing in them, I love devising new work, I love interpreting text, making wigs, designing make-up and hair, sitting in coffee shops discussing how the arts can prevent fascism, the power of creation to envision a sustainable world... and so much more.

I'd like to meet:

People that are true to themselves and enjoying their lives.Creators who enjoy collaboration.Artists, visionaries, radicals working to manifest their dreams creatively.

Music:

Tori Amos, U2, Ani DiFranco, Dar Williams, Morphine, Sponge, Indigo Girls, VNV Nation... those are who I think of at the moment... there's almost no music that I can't appreciate.

Books:

There are sooo many! Stupid White Men by Michael Moore, Mists of Avalon by Mary Zimmerman, Ishmael by Daniel Quinn, Story of B by Daniel Quinn, The Color of Water by James McBride , Witchcrafting by Phyllis Currot, I just finished Wicked which was wicked. Political, intrigueing...

Heroes:

On my mother's side we are related Edwin Booth, according to some, America's first premiere Shakespearean actor for whom the Booth Theatre in NYC is named after.
