Vanity Kills

*******************MOVING TO WASHINGTON DC AT THE END OF THE YEAR*******************************

Buffalo, New York is my present homebase although I originally hail from Union, New Jersey.. I travel between New York and New Jersey frequently. Toronto ,Albany, Ithaca, NYC and selected other locations in Upstate New York are completely feasible for me with paid travel. Montreal, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, eastern Ohio, etc. are also a reality for the right offer. Obviously this
excludes unpaid opportunities or TFP propositions that do not result in a guaranteed tear sheer. I will not waste your time, do not waste mine.

I currently have chin length bright red hair with Bettie Page bangs.
I have wigs and hair pieces that can drastically alter my appearance.

My eyebrows are shaved.

I currently have one facial piercing[14 g septum] which can be removed upon request.

Tattoos: One Ant Zen logo tattoo [ant/brackets] on my left upper arm[3" lengthwise].Lex from the comic Gloom Cookie on my left bicep [about 6 inches long].Lex and Max from Gloom Cookie on my right bicep [about 10-12 inches long]. I do not object to my tattoos being digitally removed or covered with makeup. The model is merely a canvas for the artist after all.

My wardrobe is extremely diverse. I have corsets, platforms of extreme height, fetish wear, military uniform-esque  garb, post Apocalyptic ensembles, cybergoth/android princess apparel , pinup/cheesecake/gothabilly/Stepford Wife outfits and all manner of gothic/Victorian attire at my disposal. Thus I can easily switch back and forth between complimentary or contrasting looks amid the duration of a single shoot.

I adapt easily to a variety of alternative styles such as, but not limited to: Gothic/Cyber/Fetish/Industrial/Retro/Cheesecake/Post Apocalyptic. I am always open to new suggestions and ideas.

I am more than capable of performing MUA duties, but I am not fussy when others do my makeup. This is YOUR shoot and my job is to POSE, not criticize, dissect the technique of or otherwise harass your makeup artist. Likewise I prefer to work with people who check their egos at the door.

I am interested in doing primarily fashion work, as well as clothed fetish work[latex and rubber couture]. I am EXTREMELY open to horror and gore themes**** I am NOT currently interested in doing any nudity/implied nudity.****

In addition to being a model I am also a DJ and a promoter.

I am also a busy freelance writer.

I have written fashion/lifestyle articles for Auxiliary Magazine, I have a running love advice column for Lip Service(Yes, the cool clothing label) called “Lethal Love”, I write electronic music reviews for Connexion Bizarre and makeup tutorials for UK based print magazine “Alt Fashion”. I have also reported on 2004’s Gothic Icon pageant which I have created and promoted in Issue #18 of Gothic Beauty Magazine.

Due to my work schedule I prefer to shoot on weekends.
