Members of the Month - January 2009
Tammy Le | Los Angeles
As the co-founder of LOVEMADE -- with partner and fellow LLLA chapter organizer Linda --Tammy Le (AKA, Tammy Lovemade) is truly a party machine. Throughout the year she and Linda crank out events that make Angelenos get up off their asses and move!
Don't let the cute face and great style fool you, Tammy's a triple threat; responsible for LOVEMADE's marketing, PR and events. What did you expect from a lady who graduated with a BA in business administration and marketing from CSU Fullerton?
Prior to LOVEMADE, Tammy worked for a marketing firm, casted music videos including Janet Jackson's "So Excited" and Outkast's "Don't Chu Worry."
If you ever feel the need to live vicariously through Tammy and her crew, take a gander at the LOVEMADE blog or listen to some tracks from her personal playlist:

Erica Zelaya | Seattle
Erica Zelaya's a bit like Helen of Troy but instead of launching ships, she's launched some of the biggest things to hit the gaming world. Erica's 10+ years of experience in merchandising, communications and events has contributed to Xbox's video game domination. She gives good press; Xbox LIVE, Xbox 360, Gears of War and Ninja Gaiden II have made their way to premier news outlets on Erica's watch.
In addition to launching games, she helps to keep them afloat by managing several video game trade shows including Leipzig, E3, and the Tokyo Game Show.
When she's not busy figuring out ways to distract our men (and women) with action-filled gorefests, she enjoys traveling to locales including Tokyo, London, New York, Paris, Frankfurt and Mexico City; where she enjoys sampling their culture and cuisine. Some of her favorite spots are Il Barrio Latino (Paris), See Sound (Seattle), Koi (LA) and Why Curry (New York).

Erica is known for never passing up a good deal on designer shoes and loves playing with make-up even when she's not modeling or acting. When Erica feels like making a little trouble her partner in crime is usually Ladies Lotto's chapter organizer Sarah Hunt. No matter what Erica's doing, she's got game!

After receiving a degree in business administration in finance from HBCU, Howard University, Yemisi landed an account manager position at media planning agency, Starcom Worldwide. Yemisi's major client is insurance giant, Allstate. Through Starcom Worldwide's leveraging of print, television and other media, Allstate was able to reposition itself as a trusted and relevant service.
Throughout the course of her life, Yemisi's realized she's cut out for more than the major listed on her degree. She'd like to continue exploring her interests including financial planning, travel, music, fashion, health awareness and community service.
Holy six degrees of separation! Tammy casted Janet Jackson's "So Excited" video which features Dove's former client Khia.

Thanks Emily for being the woman of music in Ladies Lotto!! =)
Ce Ce Chin,
Chapter: LL NY
That something was the perfect shoe. Sure there were shoes out there, but none of them were just right. This one was too-boyish-- that one felt (and looked) like a bed of nails. Where was that Goldilocks shoe that was playfully comfortable and still makes you feel flirty... and sexy? Since she couldn't find it, she decided to make it herself. So three years ago, Chin burst on the scene with 80%20, her footwear company. Chin has had runaway success with her signature hidden wedge, which garnered retail attention from leaders such as Isetan
In the boys club of mammoth footwear corporations, Chin's story read like David vs. Goliath. Of course you can't go wrong with a great idea. The ideology behind 80%20 came from her observation that we tend to wear our favorite 20% of our wardrobe 80%2 of the time- and these are definitely part of the 20% you can't live without.
Thanks Ce Ce –your talents amaze us all! :)
If you guys see any of these ladies walking down the street, go and take them out to dinner because they deserve it!! :)

MEMBER OF THE MONTH - January 2008
Rene Levy
Brooklyn, NY
Rene grew up in North Miami & Jamaica. As a full-time student, full-time employed Make-Up Artist, Event Planner & Ladies Lotto NY's Meeting Coordinator you could say Rene's a little busy. She's been in the service industry ever since she could smile. Helping with the family business at a young age gave her a drive that could not be taught, only nurtured. This is what started a certain work ethic that can only be described as dedicated.
Previous to her move to New York over 5 years ago, Rene ran a field marketing team geared towards the urban music scene. Her clients included but were not limited to Rawcus Records, Electra Records & Rough World Entertainment. During that time she landed a well coveted job assisting a major make up artist (we don't drop names) on the set of music videos, from there she has blossomed into the creative genius she is today. Rene kept a hand in the service industry as a bartender or server to maintain between projects. She is known to be resourceful and a great proactive problem solver - always on top of the game. She takes pride in being a fast learner and thinking one step ahead. She currently juggles motherhood while venturing out into event planning along with pursuing her B.A. in advertising.
Side note: If not for Rene's dedication to Ladies Lotto NY, we'd be in some serious trouble! So thank you so much for your hard work Rene! xo
