It has be a long ride up hill, full of excitement and challenges which make it even more enjoyable.

We want to thank Ford Artists Michelle, Ruby, Melinda and Paula for their continued support of m2m damorejon.

We continue to work with some of the most amazing people in the industry, Cosmo Magazine, Parent Magazine, Geil Magazine, Tush Magazine and S Magazine.
