City of Angels


2011 has officially started for me on the right foot. After an interesting 2010 with so many ups and downs and surprises I was blessed with an amazing opportunity right as 2010 was saying bye to all of us. New decade for the world means new chapter in my book.

I am very excited to announce my move from NYC, city of hustlers money makers and all that jazz, to LA-- where the temperature is sweet and one out of every six people is in a creative field... I see me growing artistically in endless ways.

A part of me is sad to pick up and have to "leave" my mom, family and friends... my dolls who make me want to be a better woman every day, my lower east side where I can walk for hours and be happy, my uptown where I am reminded why being part Dominican is awesome... But, when opportunity knocks you have to be ready and willing to open that door as fast as you can. One of my favorite quotes is by Salvador Dali and it reads "Life is too short to remain unnoticed," and these are words I live by.

I would be stealing myself from something great because of fear... and fear is simply not enough of a reason for me to do so...

So! Soon this East coast dope girl is going to make her mark out on the West side. Let's see if Katy Perry had it right (ironically enough I dressed up as her for Halloween).

Hello San Francisco, Malibu, three hour drive to Vegas, 1,000 musical, theater, dance, and performing groups, The LA Times, and of course Lakers. I'm ready. I'll be sure to document my experiences as I ride this wave.
