I have a LOVE for fashion - thus Kitten Couture is my baby and love mixed into one. I have been working on a variety of shows, events, etc and believe that people are definately going to embrace the line! Over the past six months, I have really focused on the accessories portion of the collection and feel that this is where my true passion and creativity lies. I am always eager to meet people in the industry and am always happy to add to my roster of friends, those that are photographers, models, designers and more.
In addition, I have a love for music. My great uncle was Joe Henderson, a tenor saxophonist and I would love to create a foundation in his name to encourage those to support music education. Although, I can't play any instrument, I love knowing that there are people who have a love for it and a keen interest in being trained to fine tune their creativity.
Outside of my two loves, I enjoy shopping, reading and just hanging out in general. This could be hanging out at a local tea shop, a day of shopping with friends or simply hanging out at a lounge. With fantastic conversation, you could be almost anywhere.
As a rule, I love meeting people that are in fashion, entertainment, etc. When it comes to those who I would like to know in terms of dating - I like people that are down to earth, make me laugh and love looking at everything with fresh eyes. I want to find someone that is just as comfortable at a very nice restaurant or lounge but can also enjoy grabbing a beer and watching a game at a bar. Although it can be difficult to meet people with that blend, I feel that if you look hard enough you'll come face to face with it.
Right now on my iPod (ok in the midst of a zillion other songs) is Thievery Corporation. I am a huge fan of techno/house/ambient music and I love the Frequent Flyer series. I got the set that has Brazilian music and fell in love with this song!! But in addition to this, I also love Bon Jovi, Maroon 5, Ursula 1000, Black Eye Peas, Eagles, Janis Joplin, Federico Aubele, Jack Johnson etc. I am also into jazz - my great uncle was the late great tenor saxophonist, Joe Henderson! I could make a list forever about what I listen to including - White Stripes, Green Day, R. Kelly etc but if you want to find out - just ask :). I think I have such a huge smorgasbord of likes and loves! I also host an Internet radio show called the Kitten Lounge which combines my love for jazz and electronica sounds with my love for fashion as well.
Closer, Godfather Trilogy, anything Adam Sandler, Matrix Trilogy, Gone with the Wind, The Searchers (I got into John Wayne movies during a marathon), Breakfast at Tiffany's, Memoirs of a Geisha, Father of the Bride I & II, Legally Blond

Love Chick Lit, anything John Grisham, Michael Crichton. I'm currently reading Heyday by Kurt Anderson and I want to start Me Talk Pretty. A friend of mine is reading Alphabet Weekends which seems so cute.
I don't think I really have a hero but I have a lot of people that I admire. There are those like my mom that I admire but then I also admire people who put their creativity out there. As opposed to heros I have icons, Michael Kors, Ralph Lauren, Audrey Hepburn and Elizabeth Taylor.
