I live in Brooklyn, with close proximity to Manhattan. I work at an investment bank, and one day dream of having a job where I can have fun with my crafts all day. I enjoy shopping as long as a sale is involved, and I also love going out to eat. I have a strong interest in singing as well.

I am an avid knitter and I also design beaded jewelry. In my mind, I have creative ADD, which leads me to tackle many projects at once. I like to knit socks, hats, and sweaters. I am interested in colorwork, cables, and lacework. I also like things that are really feminine, and my favorite color is pink... all shades of pink.

My all-time favorite type of music is Soca (Originated in Trinidad and Tobago). My favorite artists are Shurwayne Winchester and Machel Montano, because they know how to command the crowd during a performance. Aside from that I like R&B ballads, reggae, dancehall, contemporary gospel, some pop, some rock, and intrumental jazz. I tread the waters of hip-hop lightly, and really listen to what is playing on the radio, as opposed to buying full fledged albums. Some of my favorite artists are Sean Paul, Tamia, Destiny's Child, Beyonce, Kelly, Rihanna, Mariah, Janet, Whitney, Alicia Keys, Gwen Stefani, Avril lavigne, Kelley Clarkson, and Ne-Yo. I am usually into what is hot in the clubs at the moment, because when you hear it over and over again, it actualy starts to sound good. LOL!!
