paraI was born in San Francisco to cool artistic parents, we moved not long after to Hawaii after moving between New York & Atlanta. That was an absolute paradise, which lasted for a few years before returning to Atlanta, where my fathers roots are. I got to get a true sense of where he was coming from. We stayed in Atlanta for years and I spent all of my summer months in Harlem, New York where my mom is from, I gained long term friends that I looked forward to revisiting every year. We spent time in Brooklyn with an Aunt as well, who was a blast. I attended four high schools in Atlanta before moving back to California and graduating there. I became a beach bunny as we lived minutes from the beach. It was fantastic. I moved around again a bit, returning to Atlanta to attend art college, than back to Cali where I took up motorcycle riding and bought a Honda Rebel. I can't tell you the excitement and thrill of that ride. After working for a while and attending school I moved to Japan with my mom where we stayed for 2 months before moving on to Thailand, where I left my mom after a month for Paris, France, where I ended up living for 3 years. I learned French, studied art, fashion, dance, drama, worked as an artisan, traveled to many parts of Europe, married a frenchman, started writing lyrics for music and gained an understanding of surrealism which I consider my art style to be today. I was an art gallery whore, that's where you could find me. Paris is also where I started out as a figure model. I rode a bicyle all over Paris, my time there was like nothing else, fantastic. I moved back to the states, to Atlanta went back to school for fine art than to New york, and became a fine art model, while continuing with my painting. New York was the best for bike riding. I traveled to Cuba which was a dream of mine and it was fascinating. Back to Atlanta where I started playing soccer & performing my lyrics at open mic events, which I had to take a break from after having my son, I will be back at it soon & get some recording in. I am still doing it all with a new husband, two children, an ebay store and many dreams. If you read down this far I luv you, look out for my book sometime in the near future. I left out many details.
