My name is Gia Qamar...
I have been studying dance since I was old enough to walk...I began
classes at age 3 in ballet & jazz.
I am American born with Middle Eastern, Russian, Italian & German blood.
I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Theater Arts from Rutgers University and have worked in theater, TV, as a voice-over artist, as a print model and am an extensively published feature writer for local newspapers and national magazines.I am also a trained sculptor!
Not enough you say? I am also a professional Psychic, Medium, a Tarot Reader and Reiki Master (energy healing). You can visit my 'sister' site for more information on the Readings and Energy work I offer in my Clifton NJ Studio: www.NJTarot.com and www.NJMedium.net
