Alright, I know this is kinda odd... but I have decided that I am not learning anything new at my job, and I need to move on. I would like to go to Hawaii first, and work my way to LA.. but I have no issues hitting anywhere else. Soo... if anyone has a shop, and is willing to give work to a pretty skilled decorator, who has huge potential and is completely unafraid to try anything new I'm your girl. I'm slightly crazy, tattooed from neck to foot.. and draw in a lot of attention. (Think Kat Von D with cake) If you want to see more samples of my work, I am more than willing to send them.

Thanks!

(and if you have any leads, hook me up!)

Are you strictly a decorator, or are you trained in pastry, too?

Also check in the back of ACD. They post job openings in the classified section there. Also check in Craigslist.

If I had a shop, I'd hire you in a minute. You can do old-school - that would be important to me. Tats don't bother me - boehmes are free-thinkers, and that's what makes an artist unique.

I don't have a shop, or any leads...but I think you'd be a blast to make cake and hang out with!
Good luck to you!

Unfortunatly I don't have any formal training (Was trained as a makeup artist before finding cake)... just strictly self taught.. I know that puts me at a huge disadvantage... and it kinds sucks.. but hopefully it won't hold me back. For someone that has been working in a production based environment for 2 years, and only been doing the fun stuff on the special occasion (I do have quite a following at my store) I'm pretty badass and modest too. I do work super fast, I can produce a wedding cake in a little over an hour...
I have never worked with pastry.. though given a chance I could learn it quickly.
