Misc: I have had an attraction for the female dress and form for as long as I can remember. I first started with high heels and then corsets about 20 years ago. I added a few things over the years, but never fully dressed until Dec. 1998. This was due to after years of searching, finding Mistress Kali Ward, who gave me the encouragement to go the final step. She is a Member of "PEP National" and the founder of "PEP Buffalo" . My first day of dressing was for a Photo shoot for "Girl of the Month" (in a CD/TV publication by Bobbi Swan in "Our Way" magazine). Since then I have been having the best time of my life and have meet some of the nicest people I know. I have been to events in Michigan, Ohio, and to the "Western Belles Round Up" in the Poconos. The "Round Up" was a 3 day event were I could be "me" the whole time. It was filled with all kinds of seminars and contests. I even won "Belle of the Ball" and "Miss Congeniality." I'm a Board Member for PEP Buffalo, and a member of the Buffalo Belles. Since then I have been to many events including "Southern Comfort Conference" in Atlanta. For this on I even flew dressed. I went back to the "Western Belles Round up" for a second year and have been to Detroit, Rochester and many other places. Now I have a wonderful Lady living with me and her kids. I am their second Mom and am dressing almost all the time now, going everywhere I wish. It is all so wonderful and I owe so much to Nicole, my love who gave me so much confidence. I do have a personal web site, so if you would like to see it, feel free to E-mail me for the link.

Now in 2008, I find myself married and with a new family. I live 90% female and try to look male for work only. I have found myself and have a partner to share it with. I have dropped out of PEP Buffalo and am just living life the way I always wanted, Female! I am working to keep the Buffalo Belles going for those that are just opening up the "Trans" door for the first time and for those that just want someplace to go to be "themselves".

Misc: Although I have been dressing since the age of 8, I have been "in the closet" up until last year. My first time out as a woman was the Sept. 2007 Belles meeting. Even now,one year later,my outings are still pretty much limited to just the meetings,as I'm still working on some confidence issues. I'm looking forward to going to the 08 Erie gala this fall, I'm hoping that living as a woman for 4 days will help me to "blossom".
