WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
I am originally from South New Jersey! Right between Atlantic City, Cape May and Philadelphia.
PITTSBURGH NEIGHBORHOOD NOW
Brookline. It’s such a diverse neighborhood and there is always something to do, which I love! It’s nicely convenient to all major points of the city.
WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT PITTSBURGH?
I love that no matter how many times I’ve left the city, for what ever amount of time (years, even), I return and it feels like I never left. It’s like a warm hug, this city. The people are unique, kind and always helpful. It’s truly unlike any place I’ve ever been!
TELL US SOMETHING SURPRISING ABOUT YOU
Something surprising about myself? Well, I surprise myself every day, so this may take me awhile! I’ve been an artist for 20 years. I’ve done PR for a clothing brand based out of Los Angeles. I’m a makeup artist and photographer. It’s brought me great joy, frustration, excitement - like any artist, but it has brought me a lot of fulfillment. Like no other.
FAVORITE ITEM CURRENTLY IN THE SHOPS?
Everything is absolutely unique and such a beautiful love song to the city and its artists. I would honestly have to say my favorite item is the love, Pittsburgh incense. Smelling them every time I entire the shop has created such a memory based on scent, alone. It’s one I know I won’t forget!
WHAT SONG IS STUCK IN YOUR HEAD RIGHT NOW?
Empire of the Sun - Walking On a Dream
