I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Born and raised in Orlando, FL. The only child of a Guitar playing Entertainer and a Polynesian Dancer. We traveled all over the country and parts of Europe when I was a kid. We settled back in Orlando for me to attend Catholic Elementary and High School. Once I got to High School, I realized, Catholic school was not the place for me, after 9 years. Ended up in a Theatre at Dr. Phillips. This lead me to UCF, where I got a degree in Stage Management and a lesson in Love. Met my husband, Tim, actor extraordinaries. Got Married. Planned on moving to NYC, then 9/11 happened. So instead, we hung in Orlando for a bit...6 years. I worked for Broadway In Orlando, CPS and did theatre work on the side to keep me sane. Tim had a great run of success with the Orlando Shakespeare Festival.We are now moving into a new stage in our life. I am taking chances on a great new job opportunity in Las Vegas. Living life in the fast lane. Tim is traveling the country, making his mark on regional theatre. Missing old friends and family. Having fun meeting new friends.The winding road of life is definitely an adventure! As I sit here, feeling a little older, I realize you should drive the road of life in a sedan, not a Porsche. Gotta slow down and check out the scenery. This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!

My Blog

File this under WTF!

I'm not trying to be a Liza hater, but what the hell was this? Did she wear that black headband so she could hit the courts after the performance. Strange and over the top! ...

What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas...

I certainly hope that's true for the MTV Video Music Awards. The VMA's, neither an awards show about music or videos. A show more about flashy mediocrity and poorly executed performances.From Britne...
