About Me

I love all things art. Design/music/writing. Music is a huge passion in my life. I sing, play guitar, sitar, bass and drums. Check out my band that I'm drumming in at www.myspace.com/soundfix. I received my master's degree in Architecture in 2005 and am addicted to design and the arts. Seems as though I like to get my fingers wet in a little bit of everything. Jack of all trades, master of none right?Straight-up, down to earth, level headed, diplomatic. I'm very kind and giving person but I never let people take advantage of that. Don't ever mistake kindness for weakness. I'm a quarter African, quarter Irish, quarter Dutch and quarter East Indian, but I speak english and french. I have no family on the continent besides my sister and parents wich has allowed me the fortune of travelling all over the globe, thus travelling is a big passion of mine. I've made it to Africa, Uganda, Ireland, France, England, Spain, Italy, Germany, Holland, Jamaica, Cayman, Mexico and Costa Rica. (Big fan of Spain, gotta live there sometime soon!)I'm originally from Canada but recently moved to Portland, Maine. Not much for sports but fitness is important to me. I'm a black belt in Tai-Kwon-Do, love running and biking and have aquired a new interest in surfing.
