About Me

Layout by Tennaya Layouts a I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.1One of the reasons why I love MySpace is, not only does it give me the opportunity to network my jewelry, but it also helps me promote my very talented friends. Some are new that I've met here on MySpace who I've come to love and respect as friends and artists, and some are old that I've known most of my life.

I'm originally from Buffalo, NY and I come from a close-knit Sicilian/American family. I moved to Los Angeles in 1995 and moved in with my only sibling and older brother Michael. If I'm from a close knit family why did I move 3000 miles away from them? Well, have you been to Buffalo in the winter? Enough said. I presently live in Burbank where I prefer the slightly slower pace than in LA. I have a full-time job in Beverly Hills and I've been there pretty much as long as I've lived in LA.

I'm also a jewelry designer. I make handcrafted beaded jewelry. That's my true passion and I plan on turning it into a career. I also have a MySpace page just for my jewelry. Take a look at it and if you like what you see, please add request me. I'd love to have ya! http://www.myspace.com/truepassionjewelry.
Please check out my website which is now up and ready for business. Here's the site address: www.truepassionjewelry.zoomshare.com If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me here at MySpace or at [email protected]

More cool stuff at YourCoolProfile.com!Ok here's the deal. I love to meet people. I really do. But, and this is a BIG BUT, I have a major problem with phonies. I don't like people who use people. I will do anything in the world for anyone. I'm just like that. The only problem with that is people sense it and they take advantage and that makes me angry. I can't change who I am nor do I want to. I'm a really nice person so I like to meet really nice people. If we happen to meet, please just be yourself because with me, what you see is what you get. I will never lie to you, cheat you or intentionally hurt you. Please show me the same respect. Love to all!

Books:

I've been reading everything I can get my hands on lately.
I love to read everything by the Hargrove Family.

My good friend Jon Hargrove has just released his third novel called "Ararat" - Get it at Amazon.com

http://www.myspace.com/mysterywriterjonhargrove

Description: A daughter's search for her missing archaeologist father. An ingenious map hidden in the pages of a lost diary. A desperate race to stop a madman from unleashing hell on earth. An ancient treasure lost for millenniums...discovered at last.

You can get his first novel "Unfinished Business" there as well. A very good read. Also at Amazon.com

And also his second novel in Ebook form, "Mrs. Night" that you can get through his site. If you like vampires, you'll love this. If you don't like vampires, you'll still love this.

Make sure to check his website JonHargrove.com for all future releases

This is my friend Verna Hargrove. Yes, Jon's mom. A very talented author: http://www.myspace.com/vernahargrove

Heroes:

My mom without a doubt. She's a cancer survivor. She's been through quite alot and she's come out pretty good. She's definitely my first choice for hero. And of course my Dad. I'm lucky to have been blessed with the most amazing father any girl could ask for. I probably wouldn't make through my life without my brother Michael. He's my best friend in the world.
