About Me

A Perth girl through and through, I am currenty living in Tom Price, in the North of Western Australia with my husband, Jason, and 10 year old son, Kyle... working and trying to save some cash between jaunts to Perth for gigs and our love of internet shopping!!!I am a teacher (early childhood)at a local school. Jason is a photographer and you will be able to check out some of his shots on here.I am stupidly obsessed with music, even though i don't play. I guess you could say that i am one of those music/musician appreciators - and i've dedicated my life to it! hehe!Kyle is mad into the lifestyle up here, nature-boy! He has a lot of freedom up here and is able to do things he wouldn't get to do if we still lived in Perth.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
