About Me

____________________________________________________________ _
(my class and the Swiss RE <3, London, England 2006)-i'm a visual arts graduate from Sir Wilfred Grenfell College, corner brook newfoundland, but finished my last semester in Harlow, England! so now i hold a degree... when i first came to Japan i lived in Nagoya and taught english... i loved Nagoya! and i now consider it my hometown. i moved to Tokyo in August 2007 with hopes of attending a japanese university, but missed the exam >.< at the moment i've found part-time work as an english teacher and i take PR and live photos for bands. i hope that in 2010 i can get into school here, but no plans as of yet for a stable future...
-i paint and do practically everything else, but i consider myself a photographer/performance artist - i love old school darkroom but in this day and age i have no choice but to go digital:(
-Getting on to my personality, very young at heart, energetic, can be shy at times, high goal setter, workaholic, motivated but also lazy, friendly, happy go lucky, very open minded, could be mildly narcissistic due to my work, i have a sense of humour, and i'm considerably funny...i think, i'm also a bit crazy..but in a good way:) (i'm an 'artist' after all):P(mic-shoot 02/18/06)(mic-shoot 02/09/06)(mic-shoot 12/31/05)___________________________________________________ __________

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

i want to meet interesting people, musicians, photograhers, other artists, and people with a similar sense of humour or interests like myself! (photo-narrative 04/06)______________________________________________________ _______oh right! one last thing! just as a heads up, i really really 'dislike' being called baby!!!
