Cazembe Abena - Writer for Music
Cazembe could talk about how he's analyzed everything from Heavy Metal to Industrial, and Soul to House Music, and has an ultra-critical ear... how he has an extensive promotional marketing background with clients like Starbucks, WAMU, and DirecTV... how he's a DJ, writer, actor, former Coordinator of Recording Artists for the NAACP Image Awards... how he was part of a West African Dance Troupe, and loves Octavia Butler - but you wouldn't give a damn.

Cate Nelson - Writes for Art & Design
At the age of four Cate Nelson jumped off the top of a stairway thinking she could fly.

At age six she said defiantly to her father, "Don't interrupt my head...I'm thinking"

years passed....
and passed...

Nelson is now a full time artist who proclaims, "I'm just in it for the fumes."

She currently resides somewhere between hollywood and West Hollywood in a corner apartment.

Sasha Perl-Raver - Writer for Dining
Sasha Perl-Raver began cooking at the age of eight as a latchkey kid in New York City. Without the money to buy a slice of pizza on her way home, she made it from scratch, from dough to sauce. She began her professional career at 16 and brought her cooking skills to LA in 1996. Since then she has worked as the personal chef to actors, directors, and producers. She was kitchen manager/ catering director of Element Hollywood, catering large parties for clients such as CAA, US Weekly, and the American Music Awards. She created birthday cakes for people like Donovan Leitch, Michelle Rodriquez and Lindsay Lohan (...before she was a big ol' train wreck).

Chris Boyd - Writer for Dining & Music
Chris is from San Diego, where he attended San Marcos High School. He moved to Los Angeles in 2002 to attend the University of Southern California. He graduated in 2006 with a degree in Writing for Screen and Television and a minor in Italian. Chris loves good bars, wine, travel, the San Diego Chargers, the San Diego Padres, watching the L.A. Clippers and writing in all kinds of different forms. He has lived just south of downtown since moving to Los Angeles.

Danielle Jacoby - Writer for Nightlife
Danielle Jacoby's passion is for Los Angeles' thrilling theatrical scene, which lets her forget about the traffic and remember how culturally stimulating the "big city" can be. A native of LA suburbia at its finest, Danielle currently resides at USC where she is pursuing a Bachelors of Music degree and honing her talent for singing opera. Overall, Danielle Jacoby is a hopeless romantic with random food cravings and no sense of direction, who is constantly searching for her inner peace.

Chris Virnig - Writes for Movies & Music
Chris Virnig left flyover country in Minnesota and headed to the golden shores of Southern California in search of endless riches. But a healthy dose of culture and self-identity is what he got. Though college educated at a fine liberal arts institution in the form of St. John's University, nothing could prepare Chris for the cultural awakening that would greet him upon arriving in Los Angeles. Indeed, there exists no better place in the United States to witness a cross section of cultures. Individual hopes, fears, and influences of seemingly every race flow amongst each other in this unique and amazing city. For a young writer, inspiration lies waiting in every overpriced apartment, congested freeway, and cheap yet irresistible taco stand.
