I&#8217;m Sammie Brustin. I&#8217;m a blogger and screenwriter living in Venice. Being an La Native, I&#8217;m fascinated by this incredible city I call home and love to write about people doing amazing things in it. I am also a web designer and digital marketing guru, photographer, lover of cupcakes, no seriously; Like I take cupcakes really seriously in La&#8230; Sometimes I drag my friends out with me to go cupcake hopping rather then bar hopping. I just started my online magazine Native.La where we cover everything about la, including my web series about my curiosity and divulgence of the underground of LA titled &#8220;Let&#8217;s get weird.&#8221;
