History:
Here
is my modeling portfolio. I've done work with several
photographers in North Carolina, and have also done
a little television work for the independent station
in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. At the bottom of the
page,
you can download a sample of me singing.
Making
a living:
I design Web sites. I designed this one. Fun! I finally
get to do one MY way. I also create multimedia.
More:
I'm married and have four (count 'em - four) grown
sons. I'm an American living in Sydney, Australia
and work as a Web developer by day. By night I become
a 50's glamour queen. I'm also addicted to lipgloss
and lingerie.

My special pet project:
donations to Homeless Persons programs.
I
have a son who suffers from bipolar disease. Because
of this, he has been unable to keep a job. He also suffers
from paranoia and takes his aggression out on other
people, which has led to his being homeless on and off
for the past several years. There have been months where
I haven't known where he is.
Fortunately,
right now he is getting help from family (thanks Mom!)
to get into subsidized housing. Fingers crossed, this
time he will stick with it and get settled in so that
he won't have to be homeless again and will get the
help and treatments that he needs in order to have a
somewhat normal life.
Sounds
great, doesn't it? Except that people like my son can't
afford expensive medications and the counselling that
they need. This is where we all come in. There are wonderful
organizations out there like the Salvation Army and
other local missions, that provide drug and alcohol
abuse rehabilitation, counselling, job training and
placement, mental health assessment and treatment, temporary
and long term accommodation, as well as pastoral care
for men, women, and children in crisis situations. I
am sure that there is an organization near you that
depends on donations from the public to help get these
people off the streets. To most of us, they are just
faces with no names - often dirty, unfriendly, sullen,
and rude. But they are people - and often there are
family and friends who care about them but don't know
how to help them. Sometimes they are teens or whole
families who are just down on their luck. They depend
on people like you and me to help them out. If you've
ever been in a hole like that, you know how difficult
it is to climb out on your own.
That's
why I'm asking you to donate to these programs. They
depend on those of us who care. Don't just think about
it - do it. And tell them that Melanie said you should.
