Tell us a little bit about your personality. I am very out going I love to meet new people... I talk alot and love to make people laugh! I am very silly... I guess you could say I am kind of a dork!
How did you get into modeling? I had a photographer contact me years ago and did a shoot and then kind of did shoots off and on. Then last march I got hired working as a NOS energy promo model at HIN San Mateo, and it’s just kind of taken off from there!
What do you like most about being a model? All of the really fun people i have met, and traveling!
What have been your highlights in your modeling career? I guess the highlight of my career was getting involved with HIN and finding out about the import industry and how much it has to offer!
Do you have any funny photo shoot or casting stories? I ran out to my car to put money in a meter in a bikini in down town San Francisco... I got locked out! People on the street were looking at me like I was crazy!
Any photographers you enjoy working with or hope to work with? I am looking forward to working with Glamor maker and would love to shoot with Mike Brochu and Mike Bender... my favorite photogs to work with so far have been John Carman, Techographix and Nick Fong!!!

I think most people would be surprised to know I hate to wear make up and don’t on most days... and special skill?????? humm...I am a trained card dealer... I can shuffle six decks of cards in three minutes...lol... that’s weird.
If you could customize any car, what would it be? What color? A Lexus ISF in Starfire Pearl, but that’s just this week... I look at cars alot.
What internet websites do you spend most of your time on? Definitely Myspace... and HINcity.

Where do you see yourself five years from now? Humm... happy and healthy.
