please email me with any questions! i like you!
bio:
I took fashion design courses in college, but I seemed to have a knack for graphic design, which I freelance in (email me for a quote on services). I’m also available for buying and marketing services for your online clothing business. Contact me at painfullyhipdesign AT gmail.com.
In September 2007 I took a blind leap and moved to gorgeous midtown in Sacramento, CA after having lived in Vancouver, BC Canada for over 7 years. I’m newly single and have quickly become involved in the local fashion and music scenes here. I’m extremely stoked on being self-employed and can be found wandering about town with my laptop and/or ukulele, gleefully soaking up my 7 year deficit of vitamin D.
things i like:
burritos, music, curry, accessories, movies, photography, fashion (obviously), playing ukulele, dancing, travelling, camping, hiking, cutting my friends’ hair, wandering aimlessly, the sun, cold ones, crunchy pickles, hockey, frogs, sexy old motorcycles, old psych art posters, complaining/raving about the weather, hating GDub, blaming things on the breakdown of society…
