Profile Information

About Me
-Professionally, I am freshly graduated with my bachelor's in psych, women's studies and studio art.

I put off dreadlocks for years for no other reason than the fear of what people might think, of dread myths and simply... fear of the unknown. After debunking the myths and casting away my fear I decided that I was ready for the commitment.

I'm in this journey for the long haul and am keeping a vlog on youtube about my progress, interactions, and hunt for a dread friendly job. I'm here to make friends and learn all that I can.
