Current Role: Alumni Video / Motion Intern and Educator at our Robson Street Store in Vancouver
I am five feet nothing of absolute deliciousness. “Great things come in small packages” is what they say, and there is no truer statement to describe this little tater-tot that you want to carry around in your pocket.
Old school hip-hop, funk and soul is all you’ll hear on my iPod, along with, perhaps, some original rap tracks from Char Poppa, yours truly!
I enjoy bargain hunting for stylin’ outfits, collecting copious amounts of accessories, and of course, rockin’ my stunna shades every chance the sun permits. I am an artist of many forms — I sing, I dance, I write, I craft, I photograph, I film. There is nothing more therapeutic then releasing stresses, over-thought thoughts and feelings through the naked scribblings on a page, capturing the world’s beauty through my lens, or the movement of my body to a Zapp and Roger song.
With a two and a half year background of working for lululemon athletica, with my beginnings in Vancouver and later transferring to Toronto, my experiences with the company have surely shaped my journey.
Call me a catalyst for raw emotion; may the result be laughter, tears, head nods, head shakes, smiles or frowns, whatever my spoken or written words and visuals will provoke from you, your humanness and ability to relate is what makes me feel connected to the world, and to myself.
I am a blog artist. Hear me blog.
