Not only am I a professional musician and private music instructor, I am also a recent graduate from DeVry University and interested in doing some freelance web & graphic design work at the Jr. Designer level. I really enjoy using the Adobe Creative Suite 5 Software and seek to improve my skills in the programs. I graduated with honors from DeVry University where I received an Associates Degree in Applied Science Web Graphic Design. With the skills I have acquired through my course of study, I believe I would be a valuable team player for any company seeking to employ new graduates.
I thoroughly enjoy teaching music to students and performing, but I am looking to expand my creative horizons by putting my degree to good use. If you’re interested in learning about my music, feel free to read the excerpt below regarding my stage name, Cylindrian Rutabaga along with my three solo self released albums.

Cylindrian is the virtual representation of Atlanta Singer/Songwriter, Grace Buford, who has been writing songs and performing in Second Life and the regional Southeastern United States with her unique blend of folk, pop, blues, and soul wrapped up into the phrase of Modern Acoustic Folk. Grace’s desire is to emotionally reach and enrich peoples lives through her music around the world one listener at a time.

I am an SL Live acoustic singer/songwriter and live in Raleigh, NC. I can’t wait to hear ya’ll on Feb 10th. I was wondering if you have an extra half hour of time for me to do a set? If not, I’ll still love to come hear everyone play in person. You can hear me in game every Saturday and Sunday at 5pmSLT. You can also hear my stuff on http://www.myspace.com/shiger.
Thanks,
Shiger Seattle

Just heard her show in SL and I’m blown away. Sweetest, most expressive voice since Eva Cassidy. Add me to the growing list of fans.
Hi Lovely woman,
Enjoyed your concert last night, the 8th. You were great, as usual.
Love your naturalness, your giggles, your voice. See you on 10th @ Jittery Joe’s.
Love, Pidge
I have no words other than I am moved by the beauty of your music! Thank you for being here!
Hey… get ahold of me Sometime…. We still haven’t practiced together yet
Dear amazing Grace
Thank you for the great Music you share with us.It takes me back home everytime I hear it.
I just had to stop by and drop my 2€ cent… heheh…. i Love your voice… reminds me a bit of Tori Amos, someone i used to hear a looong time ago, and now thru SL i rediscover the wonderful peace and feelings a voice like yours is able to “Grace” our ears with…
I just have an itsy bitsy complaint….. i’m in Europe… so i can’t attend as many live shows as i’d like to…
whish you could perform live around the clock….. :s hehehe… kidding
Congratulations
Thank you
Miguel
I heard you at a club (sl) a couple of weeks ago and enjoyed your music. Now today I got a group notice informing me that you were performing in Roswell. Such a small world. I am about 1.5 hours southwest of you. Unfortunately my work schedule conflicts prevent me from seeing you live in person, or live in sl.
Grace rules. Grace rocks. Grace is amazing.

very interesting, but I don’t agree with you
