Kiki T. was a self-professed "horny teenybopping teenager." And it was in these days that a prepubescent crush on Simon LeBon of Duran Duran actually led Kiki to her dream job. (Tell that to the mom who says reading "Bop" and "Tiger Beat" will get you nowhere fast.) Both Simon and Kiki were Scorpios, and this sparked a desire in Kiki to investigate further. Astrology quickly confirmed the compatibility of the two, and Kiki says she was hooked from that day forward.

Kiki attended college as a creative writing major. After graduation Kiki paid the bills by bartending as she worked whenever she could to write a novel. It was a regular at the bar who suggested Kiki take her love of astrology further and pitch an astrology column to the magazine where the bar-goer was interning. While that opportunity didn't turn into the gig Kiki was hoping for, it did leave her with a sample (and a clue) on how to pitch herself and her skills moving forward.

Kiki coined and trademarked the phrase "astrosexologist" so she could be the only one (Smart woman.) It developed after she landed a job at Playgirl as the magazine's astrological columnist. She wanted to set her self apart from other astrologers, and since she had a specialty of love and sex, her phrase — and her job — was hers for the taking.

Kiki's creativity extends beyond her creative writing degree and knack for words. When she can she enjoys photography, creating mixed media collage notebook covers for her journals and traveling.
