Hi there! This is me! I decided to do my introduction with photos because hey, that's the best and fun!!!

I've been a mermaid professionally for over a year, recreationally for about 3 years and in spirit my whole life! I have a website as you can see in my logo, and you can also find me on Facebook!

I started off with a practice tail from mermaidFX and then graduated to a mertailor tail that had a lot of issues (you can see my review here: )
I am currently in line for a MVD tail.

Professional as a mermaid I focus on educating kids and following these 3 main ideas:

I have a head dress, belt, and bra made for me by Alexandrian, and Raven made my necklace :) I also try to do some performing in my tail but I have a smaller lung capacity due to health issues and can't stay under as long as most so I've yet to reach the realm of doing all sorts of funky tricks.

However I still try to make do, check out this video!

Words cannot express how inspirational your story is to little 'ol me, Raina, er, AniaR(seriously, girlie, what's with the jumbled-up screenname ;))! I'd feel so honored if you consider me your "mer-sister".
