Interview

  • If you have to pick one thing that everyone else should absolutely know about you, what would it be?
    I've lived in 17 different cities in towns throughout the United States. I was born in Philadelphia but started moving as soon as I turned 18, and never looked back. After almost ten years in San Francisco, I'm looking forward to my next adventure: relocating to Berlin, Germany in July 2022.
  • What are your hobbies? What do you like to do in your spare time?
    Video games, fashion, art museums, reading, writing, drawing
  • How do you go that ‘extra mile' in your life?
    I always live authentically. I tell people exactly who I am and expect the same from them. Sometimes my opinions can come across as harsh, but I never lead people on. What you see is what you get. Underneath it all, I'm a life-long dork who's just looking to share love and experiences with others.
  • What do you do for fun?
    I love video games, horror movies, going out to restaurants with friends, shopping, or walking around my city.
  • Tell us what you consider to be your greatest life experience.
    The best experience of my life was performing my first self-organized and crowd funded recital in San Francisco. Combining my love for fashion and passion for opera singing, I was delighted to present an evening of song to my friends and supporters. It was amazing, and I cried at the end. I had broken up with my boyfriend 3 days prior and was feeling devastated by it, but once I saw the audience and opened my mouth to sing, everything fell away and I was in bliss. Singing has always been my greatest therapy.
  • What are your greatest personal traits?
    My style, intelligence, and singing are what I am most proud of, and what others most often recognize me for. I am also incredibly sensitive.
  • What kind of diet and fitness regiment do you follow?
    I pretty much eat whatever I want, and yet I stay thin. I don't attend a gym: I find them oppressive. I enjoy walking with friends when the mood strikes us.
  • What’s your lifestyle? What makes you who you are?
    I must surround myself with beauty to feel balanced and at peace. My wardrobe, home, and friends represent my love for and admiration of aesthetics. I am an avid art collector and have seen my collection grow tremendously over the last year. I have also amassed a wonderful assortment of luxury clothing and shoes. My style is something I am instantly recognized for, and it is a vital aspect of my personality and in how I wish to be perceived by the world at large.
  • What makes you stand out from the crowd?
    My friends say that I inspire them through my words, talent, and enthusiasm. I was not aware that I had such a positive effect on people until recently. It's a good feeling.
  • What is your ‘niche’?
    My niche tends to be more daddies who prefer the raunchier side of things. I am far from prissy myself, though in public my appearance is rather fastidious. In the bedroom I can be quite the pig!
  • How often do you travel? Do you prefer to travel or you are more of a homebody?
    I admit, I am more of a homebody. I love days off where I can just lounge in bed --sometimes alone, sometimes not ---and watch Netflix, or play some PS4. I also enjoy banging away on my piano (I'm not very good, but I'm trying to get better), learning new repertoire, or rehashing old favorites from my college years. Bach and Finzi are two of my current favorites.
  • What would you like your followers to know about you that is unique and even a bit personal?
    Most people don't know that I am a classically trained bass-baritone and have sung on opera stages. My dream is still to eventually sing on the Metropolitan Opera Stage someday. My grandfather had a gorgeous tenor voice but never got to do anything with it because he started a family. In my life, I want music to be my husband. Everyone else can wait their turn!
  • If you and I were on the beach having some wine and great food, what would you tell me about yourself.
    In my life I have lived in 17 different cities and towns, including my current home, San Francisco. I get bored easily and I always need something new and exciting to keep me floored. My clients recognize this, and some of the most interesting experiences I have had are through trying something new, even if it made me uncomfortable at the start.
  • What should others absolutely know about you?
    Being easy going and quickly adapting to life is what has made me the strong person that I am today. It has contributed to my natural dominance and no-nonsense attitude. With me, what you see is what you get. Honesty is my creed.
  • What do you enjoy most about yourself?
    I enjoy my ability to easily be entertained; be it through reading, watching a movie, or even just working with new vocal repertoire. I also enjoy my adaptability to life and its assorted challenges.
  • Name 5 things that you can’t live without.
    Spotify, Netflix, PS4, Mint Chocolate Chip Ice-Cream, and Conditioner for my extremely curly hair
