Spoken Word Artist/Poet/Entrepreneur

About Me

Layout powered by HOT FreeLayouts Newest / Music / MoviesI've been writing and performing Spoken Word/Poetry for quite a few years. I actually, started writing poetry at the age of 7. While my passion is in the written word, I majored in Speech Communication to perfect my craft and give the written words a voice. As President & Ceo of GSI Entertainment Company based in Metro Atlanta, my goal is to help a new generation of artists fulfill their dreams and reach their full potential. Just call me the Ultimate Optimist, because I believe Dreams do come true, even if they are sometimes deferred.I have performed at various Venues and Churches in the Metro Atlanta area including, but not limited to Apache Cafe, Irish Bred, D'Jango's, 20 Grand East, Tarrazu's, and most Recently the Rialto Center for the Performing Arts. I Hosted Uplift Wednesday's Open Mic & $300.00 Slam Competitions at DaBomb Platinum in Lithonia,Ga from June 2004 thru August 2005.In May 2005, GSI Entertainment launched the S.P.I.T.T. TOUR which included HBO Def Poets, Independent R&B/RAP/HIP-HOP Underground Spoken Word Artists. GSI Entertainment is currently seeking sponsorships for 2007. So to all the Ballers, Money Makers & Investors...Holla @ your Girl(wink) (This generation of artists are way too talented not to be heard) *NOTE..... I've decided not to solely rely on Sponsorships for funding the Tour. I have taken charge of my own Destiny and have entered the Real Estate Market. If you are a Real Estate Professional, feel free to contact me to learn more about how the Real Estate Industry is about to become Revolutionized.Peace~Gigi
