About Me


I'm a teeny tiny woman with a big voice. I work in the Mortgage Biz by day & Showbiz by night. I am currently a writer / art critic for MOVEMENT magazine in Jacksonville, FL. I am also a singer /songwriter and have worked on the following two CD projects; a trip hop/electronica project with Natti Productions called Future Ancestors & I have sung along side Billy Galen on the 70's influenced rock invasion CD called Tempus Fugit. I am also the former lead singer of the band Episode26.
My shows in the past year have included Big Shiny Shoes, Pulp Fiction, & Boomtown's American Caberet, as well as Boomsong. Such shows, among others with Episode 26 have gotten me great recognition from writers of Orlando Weekly, Variety Magazine & the most recent whole page article from Jacksonville's entertainment Magazine, Folio Weekly (July '06 Issue - Arts / Stage section).With all of these activities on my plate I still manage to find a tad bit of time to go out dancing & to relax at home w/ my paintbrush. Although there is truly no rest for the weary, I love every minute of all that I am involved in; I would be bored if I didn't have this much to occupy my time. I am definitely a girl who wears many hats - you have to try them all on to see which one fits the best y'know?
I have been an actress since I was about 4 years old. I have been acting for 25 years, freelance modeling for 10, writing & illustrating short stories, books, etc since I was a kid & singing since I was 21. I also have experience in directing children's theatre & I am currently writing/illustrating a children's book called "Sea Stars", while working on a comedic / tongue-n-cheek novel called "Sanguine" - both of which I hope to seek publication for by 2009. I have also started writing another book, "Sabbatical"; a sexy thriller, in my spare time.
Eyes are my thing, for sure. Eye art, eyeball jewelery, I even once had an eyeball cake for my birthday. Call it strange, but I'm really intuitive, so I think that's part of the reason for my obsession - 3rd eye & all.
Gotta love that Eye in the Sky

You are The Star

Hope, expectation, Bright promises.

The Star is one of the great cards of faith, dreams realised

The Star is a card that looks to the future. It does not predict any immediate or powerful change, but it does predict hope and healing. This card suggests clarity of vision, spiritual insight. And, most importantly, that unexpected help will be coming, with water to quench your thirst, with a guiding light to the future. They might say you're a dreamer, but you're not the only one.

What Tarot Card are You?
Take the Test to Find Out.

My Interests

Music, Acting, Creating Art, Writing, Directing, and of course, Singing/Songwriting.

I'd like to meet:

Madonna
I've already met Mike Patton but I wouldn't mind a reunion. :)

Why? - They are both independant, revolutionary & go after everything they absolutely want, despite what the media says about them.
This is the exact type of entertainer I strive to be.

*****************************************
You could say Polly Prince & I have alot in common...
"Yeah, I'm not really big on the whole long-term committment thing - um, I'm sorta comin' out of like eight bad relationships....." - Polly Prince
********************
I can relate to Vickie Minor too...
"He's weird, he's strange, he's sloppy, he's a total nightmare for women... I can't believe I haven't slept with him yet." - Vickie Minor
*****************
Perfect set up for this guy...- Love Johnny's version of the infamous & deluted Hunter Thompson
.. ..
"Hey! Ya wierd fucker! - This is bat country!"
***********************

And then there is Ms. Ricci. This stunning lassie is one I have been told that I resemble: Child Face, Huge Eyes, Under 5 ft, & well, yes - we are both pretty stacked. I guess you could say we have some things in common...
"I'm not your fucking Monkey!!!" - Elizabeth Wurtzel
Words I completely empathize with after being a guinea pig of the media for years... ha ha
*****************
And who could forget the romantic dysfunction of this movie? I have nothing to compare it to except complete, romantically grueling reality of how love really is & how we should never let our memories get the best of us - despite the b.s in between - do you really want to erase all of it?
"Blessed are the forgetful, for they get the better even of their blunders - " Bartlett's

Television:

Sex in the City

I'm mostly "hehem" a Samantha. :Þ

And I do looooove milk.......

Which Sex and the City Player Are You? Find out @ She's Crafty

"Samantha" and "Carrie" at the Martini Club Soiree



My Baby's Daddy !!


Books:

The Celistine Prophecy, No Acting Please, Ruthless Self Promotion in the Music Industry, You Can Heal Your Life, That's Queen Bitch to You, & The Game of Life & How to Play It.
Metaphysical books are my passion & yes, I admit, I am a bit of a self help book junkie too. I haven't read much fiction since I was a teenager.

Yes it's true, my dad is a Monk...

Heroes:

MY MOM, Madonna, Mike Patton, Johnny Depp & of course Jesus Christ...
For numerous reasons.
