"Your Guide For Fun & Entertainment"

About Me



Welcome to the MySpace page for Austin After Dark CD Magazine. My name is Lashonda and I am the Editor & Publisher of AAD. I'm originally from Detroit, Michigan (aka "Tha D"). Although I miss home, my new friends and family have made me feel right at home here in Austin. And so I've created this magazine/guide to celebrate the Austin community - its culture and its vibe.

My Interests

Politics, religion, philosophy, yoga/meditation, shopping, fashion, travel, music, technology, motorcycles, photography, small business development, marketing, filmmaking, producing, directing, standup comedy

I'd like to meet:

You, you...and YOU!
