ABOUT


I live just outside of Boston, Massachusetts.

I'm in love with travel, languages, music, art, and fashion.

I attended the Massachusetts College of Art and Design from 1998-2001, where I studied Photography and Fashion Design.

I've taken language courses in Portuguese (@ UMass Dartmouth) and German (@ Cambridge Adult Education). I'd like to study French next.

I currently work 9-5 M-F as an Administrative Specialist for a non-profit organization in the Cancer Research field.

I am the proprietress of two small businesses, MARGRAVINE and saint9.

I'm an organizer of the Bazaar Bizarre Boston.
