About Me

Hey, I'm Amber. I'm 25 and live in Norfolk, Va., with my grumpy Boston terrier, Kyla. I work as a graphic & web designer.

Things I enjoy making and doing: knitting, sewing, photography working out, cooking my own food, baking and frosting cupcakes, booking punk & hardcore shows, fighting the patriarchy, being straight edge, enjoying MAC makeup, graffiti, making buttons, DIY projects around my house and taming my Boston terrier.

Other things I dig: ice cream, Japanese arts and crafts, geisha, tattoos (American traditional and Japanese), zines, roller skates, bicycles, tea (I don't drink coffee), popsicles, polka dots, vintage 1950s memorabilia and advertising, typography, kawaii, dinosaurs, sharks, anything from the coral reef, Boston terriers, Apple computers, Frida Kahlo, Maya Deren.

I love cooking and baking, and I'm vegan.

I graduated May 2005 from Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia with a B.F.A in Graphic Design and a minor in Art History.

I am a member of the Norfolk Craft Mafia (www.norfolkcraftmafia.com). I have an etsy shop at http://myaimistrue.etsy.com. I also update my website pretty much daily at http://myaimistrue.com.
