Biography

    I am easily your girl next door.  I was born in Oberlin, Ohio and raised  in Vermilion,  Ohio ,  which is small fishing town,  on the shores of  Lake  Erie.  My childhood town had an east coast feel,  with lovely cottages on the lake.   Growing up my home was a beautiful historic antique filled home.   I come from a family who celebrated the arts.  During the duration of my childhood,  I took art classes,  music classes,  dance classes,  and theater classes.  I favored my dance classes most, when performing,  I felt my most beautiful and graceful.  I loved dancing so much I became interested in musicals of the 30's and 40's.  That is when when I  became enticed by the glamour of the stars of yesteryear.   I loved escaping into the elegance of,  film stars such as Betty Grable,  Rita Hayworth,  and Jean Harlow. 

  Into my teen years,  I continued to have a curiosity in mid- century glamour.  I began collecting clothing from the 1920's- 1950's.  Mere collecting took hold of me,  and I quickly found myself learning the details of dressing vintage,  and proceeded to dress in the style daily.  I learned women were immaculately dressed from head to toe.   I loved how marvelous the elegant foundations were.  Girdles,  garter belts,  corsets,  and nylon full fashioned stockings,  danced in my head!  I was soon on a mission to find my first corset.  I found a company on line that made customs corsets and  waited weeks for it to be delivered to my doorstep.  The day finally came and I slipped on the corset and loved how it squeezed my wasp waist.   I also found  I loved the hugging sensation of the corset and I began to wear the corset daily because of the way it looked and felt,  it made me feel powerful,  elegant,  and sexy. Just like the femme fatales I desired to be.

   I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with the rest of  my life.  I had an interest in becoming a make-up artist,  but also wanted to go to college and study period fashion.  But deep down in my shy heart I desired to become a performer.  I soon found myself studying theater at Bowling Green  State  University.   I loved painting class,  and creating dream like work similar to my favorite artist Salvador Dali.  I also found myself engrossed in writing classes and spent hours working on plays and theater productions.  I found I loved working behind the scenes,  rather then on stage.  I was still too shy at this point.   I helped create period garments,  and styled actors into period looks.  The details I knew about period dress,  made me an asset in theater productions.

  When I wasn't studying,  I found myself collecting mens magazines and pin-up calendars from the 30's and 40's.  In these magazines I rediscovered,  cheesecake and fetish images of Bettie Page.   I also learned a vast majority of the models in mens magazines were burlesque dancers.  I was soon collecting video footage of burlesque stars,  such as Lili St Cyr,  Sally Rand,  and Bettie Page.   I also discovered work of photographers,  such as Peter Gowland,  Bill Hamilton,  Bunny Yeager,  and Elmer Batters.  I desired to be one of the pin-up's I saw in the mens magazines.   I wished photographers like Peter Gowland still existed.  Little did I know my wish would someday come true.  I started nude modeling for local artists,  to help pay the bills.  Word quickly got out that,  I was a wonderful fine art nude subject to photograph or draw because I have such graceful movements.  I  then dyed my blonde locks magenta and had my bangs cut blunt.  I soon learned of a website called One Model Place, and made a profile.   Then I also made a small free website from Geocities as a small portfolio.  My timing couldn't  have been better since, the retro revival was just beginning.   I used this time to perfect my classic Art Deco look even more. 

    I was 18-19 years old when I had my first taste of the fetish/bondage world. I was hooked. My introduction was honestly because of my choice in fashion.  I learned my Victorian corsets, garter belts, high heels,  and stockings were considered fetish wear.  Little did I know I was such a fetishist.  My fashion choices attracted BDSM lifestyle friends to me and they gave me my first real introduction to the BDSM world.  It was a number of years later when  I booked my first real bondage shoot.  My first real shoot was with RopExpert in 2005.  Soon after I found myself being tied up by some of the best in the world.  Living life like a modern Bettie Page. 

Fetishes

  I can appreciate most fetishes,  but I personally like spanking,  rope bondage,  discipline,  uniforms,  corsetry,  stockings,  latex, heavy rubber,  and stockings.  It's interesting talking to other people with diverse fetishes.

Beliefs

  I believe life is the process of self realization.  You must continue to sharpen your mind with,  knowledge and insight.   Having intelligence gives us complete power.  Everything but true freedom,  education, or  knowledge can be taken from you.  I believe a person isn't truly free until they open their mind.   I also believe humankind,  owes it to it self to work together,  by making tomorrow a better day.   Everyone should be treated how they deserve.  Life is a wonderful thing and I have a lot of respect for it.  For that reason,  I do not consume flesh.

Marriage and Children

  I believe in marriage with the right person. I am currently unmarried, and I have no plans to change that.  As for children,  I like children but I also have no plans for having any in my future, I'm too selfish for children.  I feel I am not ready to have children.

Dominate or Submissive

   I would label myself as a mean submissive or a switch. 

Stickler for Manners

  For the most part I do not follow popular culture.  I think it is boring and very dumbed down.   I am not interested in being common, I would rather be uncommon.  I am a stickler for manners andI do not put up with inappropriate behavior.  Etiquette was created for a reason.
