I'm the lead singer/songwriter for NYC based hard rock/heavy metal band: SWEAR ON YOUR LIFE. I scream a lot. I like to spit out 2 Live Crew covers and jump around onstage with CX KIDTRONIK. I've also sung "blackup vocals" for Cyndi Lauper, Sandra Bernhard, Ana Gasteyer, Taylor Dayne and Nancy Sinatra...
A lot of people know me from VJing, hosting shows + other appearances on VH1, MTV2 + FUSE Music Television, particularly "HEAVY METAL MAKEOVER.">
I'm into: Individuality and self expression. The refined and the obscene. Existentialism. Visual stimulation. Music and the media. German philosophy. Women's confessional poetry. Gothic beauty. Motivations and contradictions. Horror. Joan of Arc. Television violence. Absinthe.
