I’M A MULTI-DISCIPLINARY ARTIST WITH MORE THAN TWO DECADES OF EXPERIENCE AT THE INTERSECTION OF CREATIVITY & COMMUNITY
My formal education was in theatre at the Cornish College of the Arts, and my job history includes voice acting, content creation, culinary professions, fringe performance art, event management and marketing for mainstream publishing and bookstores, costume design, and one championship season in the WNBA.
It's a wildly disparate history, which makes it vexing to properly convey my skills in a traditional CV.
And that is exactly why you should work with me
What it means in practical reality is I fearlessly seek out and thrive in environments that value
the arts, human stories, and building communities large and small.
I am a curator and content creator with a singular voice and an insatiable curiosity. My widely varied scope of work means I can collaborate well with others, and I bring a unique creativity informed by lived experience.
As a kid, I misheard that sappy song lyric “shower the people you love with love”
as “shadowy people in love with love”.
My favorite Gashlycrumb Tiny is Neville.
I love reading about old film stars, hate drinking from a sweaty glass,
and harshly judge those who eschew the Oxford Comma.
“Combine Dorothy Parker, the DJ from The Warriors, Dorothy Malone in The Big Sleep and (if provoked) Endora. Taffeta V. is a woman of with a vast knowledge and talent of all kinds. A much needed presence at your party, cabaret, shindig, coffeehouse and bar fight.”

"Taffeta annoys the shit outta me as, while I've been making radio off and on for literally decades, she seems to effortlessly produce what I'm clearly incapable of making: quality sets of music with thoughtful prose, all within an interesting theme. Plus she just sounds better on the air."

“Taffeta Vee plays music I haven't heard a thousand times and shows her listeners the uncommon respect of assuming we have brains between our ears. She's a GenX ninja, deadly smart, wicked funny. When Taffeta drops the needle, the madness of the world is vanquished.”
