ABOUT ME
* I am a Multifaceted Artiste. A Jan of many trades......

Native Gothem Vamp now in New Haven CT.
* I am of a Dark and mysterious nature and always have been since my youth. Being raised in a show buisness family into the Entertainment & Alternative lifestyle. I grew up around theatrics , stage and anthing Macabre and alternative. I love to work with projects of the dark genre of art and everything pertaining to it. From Glamour to Gore! Glam to Gloom. I am the creative mind behind all my many looks/styles of photos you see in my web sites. As I am very diverse and versatile. I put together the makeup, outfits, sets, props and ideas for my promo photos. If I am paid for a special assignment then it is the mua/stylist choice.
* I do Burlesque so theme, Charector, alternative fashion, Pinup work is my favorite. I also do Rock Music Promo model work. I have a very wide extensive wardrobe of Fetish, Gothic, Victorian, Lingerie-(European), Glamour, Dance , Burlesque and Foot wear. I also have a collection of corsets and cinches (designing my own now). So I can portray any look, charector or dark theme. I also can do my own hair, makeup and set designs.....
