***An Original By Thea Starr***
I didn't graduate from any special graphic design college or any college for that matter.
(I did go for a total of 6 years though...)
I used to wear a grey suit, heels & too much hairspray to a corporate office where I'd
crunch numbers and touch paperwork for hours on end. But now I don't by choice. I am
married & I am a mother of four - 2 girls 2 boys and yes on some days I am totally
insane...
sleeping???
I enjoy acting like rockstars with my kids to loud music, cooking and eating.  Wearing strange clothes &
playing video games.  We also have "pet" squirrels Mrs. Fatty & sons and some meanie deers that eat all my
blueberries. I also have a fierce runt dog named Toki Momoko

I co-founded the Everett, WA league the
Jet City Rollergirls.
Other Basic info:

My mother is an immigrant to the US from Asia and it was second nature to her to be able to sew your own
clothes and do other things for your self.  I was so proud of my beautiful
dresses that my mother made for
me. She kept all the remnants for me to play and create things with.

My father on the other hand taught me all about functionality.
Everything from chopping wood to auto body & engine repair. I can change my own brake pads damn it!

My children have taught me how ridiculous I can be and that my dad was always right.

I hoard stuff.  I am surprised that I can let go of things that I make.  Each one of my
items are unique and
handmade by yours truly.

What else? I have an unfortunate birthday. I'm an avid thrift store shopper, recycling queen, sticker
collector and researcher of
Asian textiles. I also obsess about Korean dramas- it's kinda gross how many
I've watched... I also love to watch foreign horror flicks, but I mainly watch cartoons with kids.

Otherwise all that I'm just a plain old boring small town island girl.

Thanks for stopping by & reading all this stuff.
