I am an east-coast gal living in the Midwest. I grew up in Maine, went to college in Boston, and made New Hampshire my home for 5 years before moving to Chicagoland. I have an insane passion for music and photography, and have been a freelance photographer for over 10 years.

I have a 10-year old son who means the world to me, and have no time for anyone who considers him “baggage.” Infact, I find that insulting, so if you have any issues with that, don’t waste my time.

I love creating stuff…the smell of the ocean is heaven to me…I love promoting kick-ass local bands and have a lot of musician-friends…I appreciate great art…I love being inspired and find inspiration in a lot of things…there’s nothing better than a stocked cooler at the drive-in in the summertime…I love a guy with tattoos and piercings and think they are d*mn sexy…I have plans to write a tattoo coffee-table book based on my photos. I have 6 tats of my own with 5 more in the works...I am a dreamer, a believer, and a positive thinker. I have an off-the-wall sense of humor and laugh at things I probably shouldn't. I don't think people really know how much of a dork I am.

I dance to ward off stress and because I feel music...I am fascinated with sharks and I love taking photos in cemeteries...I am blessed with a great eye, and my sense of style is very eclectic. I was born a fire-dragon and fit the personality to a "T"...I am loyal to my family and friends, but the moment you screw me over I stop making time for you. I want to surround myself with positive things and positive people. I am a no bullsh*t-takin kinda gal, but I am easy to get along with and talk to. Not a big fan of authority and being told no...

Right now I have a lot going on, and am not looking for anything other than new friends.

Date? Is there still such a thing? I can't remember the last time someone took me out...seriously...
