For months now, my dear friend Meg Hanson and I have been working on what you see here - my new php based online portfolio. No longer will I have to hand code every single photo page, press entry or costume gallery. A great big Thank You to Meg for lending me her brilliant mind and teaching me the wonders of Joomla. I love you, girl!

www.angelicstar.net is so dear to me and we've been through a lot in the past 9 years, but I am excited to finally have moved everything over to www.yayahan.com for easier navigation, interaction, and hopefully more pleasant viewing. I will do my best to continue regular updates, especially photo heavy ones.

Please stay for a while and check out the different sections. New and improved pages and features have been added and there is a lot to see. Until I have decided on a Guestbook (there are so many!), please leave your feedback and comments on my facebook fanpage!
More updates and improvements are coming and I also greatly appreciate suggestions and ideas from you! Please This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it if you think I should add something specific to www.yayahan.com, and be as detailed and informative as possible. There are so many new technologies and apps/plugins out there I may not be aware of and I will be thankful for your expertise!
