I am a graduate Student at the university of Pittsburgh working towards an MSW. I also work part time as an Autism Therapist. Even though I am pursuing a Masters degree, I do portrait (commercial, conceptual, and modeling) photography and hope to build a business out of it-webpages coming soon! This next year is busy and I like to do crafty things as an outlet and a way to de-stress in my free time.

Collage, Mixed Media, sewing 'sock dolls' Photography and photoshopping, and painting. I have joined Swap-bot primarily to trade ACT's

Books about healthy living, Alice in Wonderland/ Through the looking glass, Twelfth Night, Books about Greek mythology, and Books about Travel

I am not a big tv person at all, but when I do watch something it is usually 'bizarre foods' on the travel channel or cartoons.

There is better music out there than what you hear on the radio....I listen to a huge variety with just about anything except for country.

Just saw Up, and it was adorable!! Ghost World, Hairspray (the john waters original), Lost in Translation, and anything offbeat and wonderful.

*~Creativity, *~fun people, *`Learning about other countries and cultures *~spontaneity (random acts of insanity!!) *~coffee, *~tea, *~going out to tea (eeeeeee! its fancy time!!) *~Mary Blair ( a concept artist for Disney who designed for movies such as Alice in Wonderland, Cinderella, and Peter Pan) *~ Shel Silverstein, *~dressing up, *~dogs, *~parks, *~tennis, *~berry picking, *~Ohio's Amish Country (it is unusual for someone my age to like a spot like this. Have gone for years and I find it relaxing) *~Bollywood ( my roommate last year saw Bachna Ae Hasseno, and I heard the theme song blaring from his room for awhile! I myself like the more vintage stuff, the more big dance numbers the better!), *~Being a "half-atarian" I only eat meat about half the time, and even then it is usually chicken *~Victorian things, *~Kitsch, *~Burlesque, *~the waterpark, *~and the color pink * I don't even know, I am a contradiction in terms..

Cigarette smoke, clutter, emails/phone calls that go un-returned, Cleveland haters, sports nuts, hair-trigger tempers, chick flicks, people that are rude when driving (see hair trigger tempers, people here are incredibly rude and impatient behind the wheel), and rush hour...yep to say that I do not enjoy driving is an understatement.

Please do not feel obligated to make anything catered to my profile. If you would like to that's awesome, but I enjoy seeing cards and other swaps that people have created out of their own personal style. If you do not receive a card form me, PLEASE MESSAGE MEEE! I will gladly re-send if you did not receive your swap. Please no "Country style" items, no bratz, no Disney (except Mary-Blair related art), or sports-related items...I live in Steeler Country..ick.. and sports paraphernalia gets shoved down my throat more often than i'd like anyways.

*stationary * skull/skeleton related items *Victorian cards or other paper goods *scraps of paper ( I always re-use them!) *mints in unusual or funny tins *Halloween related items *pop-ink press art *cute monsters (just poke holes in the box before you send it :)) *a letter about you!
