I'm an artist, musician & collector of many interesting things. (Interesting to me anyway.)

I've had many cool jobs over the years including pop singer, lingerie model, veterinary assistant, optician, art broker, & legal assistant, & barrista. I help people get organized, do small interior design projects and pet care.

People tell me I have a gift with animals. I think an animal gives me a special gift when I'm able to earn their trust.

Although I can't afford it, I've lived in Oakland for about 14 years. I really love my neighborhood. I'm a member of Oakland Heritage Alliance.

I have often joked over the years that I have a small zoo at home. I used to have birds and did a lot of fostering, mostly of cats. Now I have 3 cats; Oneke, Willow, and Li Li, 2 rabbits; Maximus Bunimus, & Adorabunda, and 2 chinchillas; Pele & Babette.
