Why I’m a celeb?I’m kind of a big deal…just Google me! Just kidding! I personally find the term “celebrity” to be funny. I am the owner of Bitten and Bound ‘The Not So Pretty Side of Hollywood’ gossip blog. I get to write about all of our favorite and not so favorite entertainers on a daily basis.

Having a top entertainment blog, I have found myself involved in many exciting opportunities! Being invited to red carpet events, charity events, involvement in the movie and music industry the adventures have been endless.

My most satisfying work would be mentoring. I take great pride in helping those looking to do better in their life but just need a little extra push in the right direction.
