I am a stylist, trendsetter, influencer, artist, model, photographer, image consultant, and fashion aficionado…and I’m a waiter, so I live on a budget.

I was born and raised in Beverly Hills, CA and I am a longstanding member of SAG/AFTRA. I’ve chosen the path of the artist.

Furthermore, I have high tastes and low funds and thus I’m forced to find a good deal on the finer things in life that I enjoy.

Fortunately, I have been given the gift of style and the ability to find a great deal, which has developed into an entire philosophy about fashion and lifestyle. However, to put it succintly, the goal of my entire philosophy is to find a high quality substitute. Meaning that when it comes to fashion, the label that matters is not the one on the outside advertising the brand, but instead is the one on the inside that describes the quality of the material. It’s the old saying, “don’t judge a book by its cover but instead by the quality of content in its pages….”

I’m using the peacock as my avatar to represent the figurative idea of peacocking, which I believe is the winning, secret strategy for attracting the right people into your life, especially in the romantic realm.

Take this journey with me as we explore and discuss fashion, lifestyle, relationships, and I give you my best style secrets to make you attractive, comfortable, and confident. Ballin’ on a budget.
