MY BAND TASTING GRACE IN STEPPIN OUT MAGAZINE!!




MY FAVORITE QUOTES BY ANGELINA JOLIE"

“We come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly... Only after we have lost everything, are we free to do anything... Throw things out there and not be perfect and not have answers to anything and see if people understand”

“Without pain, there would be no suffering, without suffering we would never learn from our mistakes. To make it right, pain and suffering is the key to all windows, without it, there is no way of life.”

“Where ever I am I always find myself looking out the window wishing I was somewhere else.”

“I've been reckless, but I'm not a rebel without a cause.”

“I don't believe in guilt, I believe in living on impulse as long as you never intentionally hurt another person, and don't judge people in your life. I think you should live completely free.”

Now you can hear some of my solo music! A little something different from my band "Tasting Grace", but it's actually where it all began! A few songs may sound familiar if your a Tasting Grace Fan, they are the acoustic versions of "Fools Impression" and "Misunderstood"


I write tons of poetry/mottos,quotes and mental jibberish..here are a few that I wrote!

"Making love with my deepest fears, as they seduce my soul and hypnotize my state of confusion.... I become ONE with what I am afraid of"

"Am I being stalked by my own reflection?"

Forced to love with unconditional passion, as my soul suffocates my yearning for the truth"

Is my mind playing tricks on me, or am I playing tricks on my mind?

Black and White photoshoot!



MY BAND TASTING GRACE!!








.."Have no fear of perfection, you'll never reach it."Salvador Dali

Our life is an open book on myspace,actually in our society... not sure if that's good or bad..who really knows what's good and bad in this day and age.....ahhhh WHO THE F**K CARES...so here's to"THE SUMMARY OF ME"

I have many different sides, as you can tell by the pictures!! I LOVE MOODS..people don't realize how much control we actually have over our moods...I like to have fun with them!!! It seems my hair color changes with my moods..(I can't help it, I get board with myself!) Off course everyone loves to be happy all the time, but sadness is great for exploring your mind and bringing out your creative side. Speaking for many artists and musicians when I say, I've written the best music and created the best art pieces when I was sad. Instead of running from my fears, I face them and learn ways to overcome them!

I'm as REAL as REAL gets, down to earth, outgoing, smart, free-sprited, I share, I'm nice, I'm funny, smart, eager, a tad bit distorted (aren't we all?)have a huge heart, giving, love to love, love to be loved.....Love music, LOVE concerts,entertainment, excitement..adventure...night life..MANHATTAN CLUBS...dancing all night long(LOVE DANCING) I danced all my life and just recently started ballroom dancing!! I choreographed drill team, and Dance United for 5 years, I did go-go and box dancing in NYC and NJ, was dancer/crowd motivator for Weddings, parties, events, etc, currently have my own Dance Team "Taste" who performs with my band Tasting Grace!!!! I LOVE acting!! I was the lead character in several shows and plays throughout my life, did a few feature films, independant & commercials! I was the spokesmodel/actress for several companies and have auditioned for numurous amounts of shows/commericals..etc.. Acting is so exciting! Just the fact that you can be someone else besides your self for a while, is sooo cool!! Lets see what I get first, A RECORD DEAL or a MOVIE CONTRACT! :) LOVE the change of seasons...I'm a big kid at heart and love to be immature, it's FUN!!!! It's no fun being serious all the time..(lol) I don't like being bothered or nagged...if you don't have nothing nice to say, leave me the hell alone!!...I can't stand fake people and attention seekers who can't just live life and lead there own path. I am as sweet as pie, and will be there for you at the drop of a dime, but my heart has grown bitter from years of distrust, pain and torture that people put me and others through in this crazy world we live in! There's alot of snakes out there! I'm really, really careful with who I allow in my world! But When it comes to people I love, I'll do anything to protect them! Treat me how you would want to be treated by me and others...you get what you give...I have a heart of gold, but if you hurt it, your done!!(I sound like a bitch don't I?? I'm REALLY NOT!!!!)

I love (LOVE)!! Love is such a beautiful thing when it's real! Love for a partner, love for a child, for a pet, family, love for music, for art...etc...It's SUCH A WONDERUL THING!! When I see a happy couple looking into each others eyes with such happiness for one another...it makes me smile (I KNOW, ENOUGH WITH THE MUSHY SHIT RIGHT????) Come on, Mushy is good sometimes.... :) You know, I can honestly say, I've felt that love only a few times in my life, but those few times really changed my life for the better and helped me open up my heart! Even though the relationship(s) parted, the love is still in my heart and that's all that matterS!


my favorite thing currently in my life, is my band "Tasting Grace"!!! I am the lead singer, second guitar player and songwriter...We just released our Self-titled CD!!!! You can pick up a copy at one of our shows or on our website!! CHECK OUT: TASTINGGRACE.COM and check out our TOUR DATES so you can come see us!!!! The sound is POP-ROCK-ELECTRONICA!! It is a very unique sound, but very radio!!! We wanted to merge the excitement, vibrance and catchiness of pop with the deeper more mood driven force of rock! With my love for rock music, my guitar and heavy guitar riffs as well as my love for dance, eletronica/trance, modeling and fashion, I figured, why not merge it all into one project!!!! TASTING GRACE!!!

Besides my music career, I am a graphic artist, model/actress/dancer, Photographer, fashion coordinator, make-up artist and I have my own singing telegram company. I have 6 years of dance credits competing, teaching, choreographing...was the lead character in several theater productions, I model and act for several agencies in Manhattan and had the opportunity to meet so many wonderful celebrities...I recorded a pop song that was done by the writers of Brittany Spears and the producer of J-lo which is now in the hands of BMG Entertainment! Art and Entertainment is my passion as you can see!!!

On my free time I'm either dancing in Manhattan Clubs (AVALON being my favorite), going to concerts, working out, or I'm in the Studio writing, recording, rehearsing and working with the band

WHEN I ACTUALLY DO FIND THE TIME TO RELAX, I love going to the Spa, shopping on Canal Street in Manhattan, taking pictures, taking baths, spending time with family & friends and writing in my journal/song book.

I love painting so whenever I have the time, I paint abstract paintings for my walls and to sell(My favorite artist is Salvador Dali) I've sold a few pieces, but I don't do it for extra cash, it's more of a personal thing!!!

HERE'S A FEW OF MY PAINTINGS!!!!!


I LOVE MANHATTAN!! I was raised in a small town with lots of farms, everyone knows everyone kind of town. There was really nothing to do growing up but gossip, start fights and pick on people. Any way, when I moved to Jersey City at 19 cause I was in love, I didn't realize the love i would develop for the city life! Growing up my friends always said I was a city girl and I belong in Vegas or Manhattan, but I never actually could relate until I lived it!! Now nothing could take me away from the city life! When I go home to visit family, I'm a whole other person and everyone else is the same.

I really enjoy playing my guitar! I love to escape within myself and explore the depths of my tainted mind.."Natural healing"!! Before I started my band "Tasting Grace" I was always just an acoustic artist, very Jewel!! Actually when I sing acoustically, people tell me I sound just like her..I use to play with another female artist several years back, we did a duet and sang amazing harmonies. I guess you can say, I was somewhat of a hippie! (lol) you know, playing cafe's, on the boardwalk, dive bars in our bare feet...COME ON, it wasn't that bad! :) I've come so far since then and have had many amazing music opportunities! I've changed alot...I went from listening to Ben Harper to KILLSWITCH ENGAGE!! Pretty extreme huh? So know matter how much you change in life, you should ALWAYS REMEMBER YOUR ROOTS!! It's what got you to where you are now!!

I'm a FREAK for health...on my free time I'm always looking for new vitimans, healthy foods, skin care, hair care, etc.....I think I'm a little obsessed :-/ oh well, it's a good thing I guess. I love going to the gym and staying fit!! We all love to look good...the better we look the better we feel right? This might sound strange, but I LOVE to sweat! When I'm done cardio and it looks like I just came out of a swimming pool, my mission is accomplished!! :) My diet is really boring..I stay away from sugar, salt and eat mostly grains, fruits, vegetables and chicken..it's blah...but I got use to it and have been eating healthy for about 6 straight years! I'm not saying I don't splurge once in a while, come on, I'm Italian! I can't always resist Pizza and Pasta! I have a weakness for Ben & Jerrys Ice cream too!!

My goal in life is to get a record deal! (LOL) Which could actually be a goal fulfilled if we stay on the track that we are on. It's not always about how good you are these days, it's more of who you know!! That's not necessarily fair, but hey, if it can get you to your dream location, than so be it! I have confidence in my band and am very dedicated to my goals! Our sound is very catchy and unique and we've got nothing but amazing feedback from industry professionals!! Check out my band's myspace page for show dates, I'd love to see my "MYSPACE friends" in the crowd! And we'd always appreciate your support! If the Record deal isn't fullfilled, I settle for becoming the next Angelina Jolie AKA film actress!!! ----------------------------------------------------------- MY OTHER, MOST IMPORTANT GOALS, are to stay true to myself, by being real!! I will never change my character for ANYONE for as long as I live and most important...HAPPINESS!!! It is our goal in life to keep ourselves HAPPY and if for one second, I am not happy or content, I will change my current settings whether it be a job, friends, accomplishments..etc..We only have ONE shot at life and it is very short..don't spend your valuable time on this earth pleasing others, PLEASE YOURSELF!!!!!!!!

One day I will leave Jersey behind! I'm so over it! I'll be living in an amazing condo right on the beach in CALI with a beautiful balcony! I'll be playing my guitar, painting, relaxing and drinking fruit smoothies to the sound of the ocean!! And no, I'm not dreaming, IT WILL HAPPEN!! (After I tour the world) :)
