PERSONAL DOSSIER

Born in Grand Rapids, MI to a loving mother and an existing father, I was raised an hour north in a town almost no ones heard of unless you've been there specifically for some reason. Being born in 1996, I was raised in what I consider the best of both worlds, we've got the accessibility of the internet taking up the rear end of my aging, but the first half was almost completely analog.

*I'll note that while not everyone's experience mirrors mine, I grew up in an incredibly poverty stricken situation with a less than desirable type of man as my "father figure".

Without going into too much detail (maybe later in some kind of diary that I'll try to keep more private) I was raised to not only be fearful of men, but also that there was no reason for anyone to want to enhance their appearance or change it in any manner, for any reason. Unfortunately for him, my mother disagreed and was incredibly close friends with Mrs. Clairol my entire childhood, helping guide my love for the beauty industry... I think it also helps that I was a near professional dancer for quite some time, starting dance lessons when I was in diapers still and only quitting once I was 16 and the studio owner changed for the worse.

She also raised me in an incredibly spiritually and religiously open household. We weren't forced to conform to the family's Christianity, and she made sure we knew it from a young age. I remember my mom practicing her witchcraft in the living room on weekdays when my sperm donor was at work, the smell of burning sage and tobacco with cedar leaves is burned into my memory; anytime I smell cedar it brings me immediately back to my childhood.
