Profile Information:

Tell us of your likes and dislikes. Music? Tv/Movies? Books? What do you like to do in your spare time?
In my spare time I work out, design jewelry, sew, and participate in Renaissance Festivals. I also love to read!
Are you currently living what may be considered an alternative lifestyle? For example, are you a traveling artist, practicing a non-mainstream spirituality, or part of a BDFSM lifestyle?
No. I am not living an alternative lifestyle. I am disabled and setting up my own business as a private contractor. I would love to sell the jewelry I make but I also am a Health Activist Speaker and Motivational Speaker.
What does the older knowledge of legend, myth, lore, story, tale, wisdoms mean to you?
History. I love studying history and you can't understand where we are going unless you know where we have been. Legends, myths, lores,etc.... all tell us about an early belief system.
Do you belong to any organizations; re-enactment based (i.e. households, tribes, clans), spiritual based (i.e. covens, orders, or other pagan groups) or other? If so which ones and where?
No. I am a street character at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival. My character name is Lady Inga Greeves. But all my friends call me Lady Giggles.
If not of the older life styles, how tolerant are you ?
Extremely. I believe everyone has a right to live their life how they see fit.
Have you ever been to a Renaissance Faire or Medieval Fest? If so, which did you prefer? If not, which would you rather attend? Would you rather be a participant or spectator? Please relate to us your experience!
I have been to both. Love both. I enjoy being both participant and spectator. I perform at MNRF but attend many other faires as a garbed patron. I have to many personas to stay limited to just one faire. :D
Do you have any artistry, crafting, and trade… what do you create, Please share your talents with us.
My inspiration comes from the world and materials I use. I can usually look at material and see what I want to make out of it. Sometimes nature's colors inspire me to use colors that I might not generally use or put together.
What is the best way to contact you if your talents are skills are desired?
My business email is:

I also have a fan page on facebook.

Please answer all questions honestly and openly so staff and members can get to know you. Approval of your application will be based upon your answers. Any thing else you would like to tell people?
I believe in positivity....and giggling. My life revolves around my chronic illness. I do my best to work with it and stay positive. My disability affects both arms/hands and legs/feet. Which can make my jewelry designing and sewing somewhat complicated but its always doable.
