Interests
My interests include sewing, painting and creating synthetic dread extensions. I have been running an online business for the last six years under the title Dolly Decay Designs and I occasionally vend at festivals and conventions. I also enjoy hoola hooping and perform with my friend circle at local events. I also have a very ecclectic taste in film and music, and enjoy taking interest in things that I am not familiar with so as to inform myself about the way different people live.
