Here's where I can tell you about who I am , how I
got started in modeling and where I am today.
I was born and raised in Long Beach, California. It
was a childhood dream to be a model, so when the opportunity
came along,I entered the Miss Long Beach pageant. I
was really excited that I won, and that was what really
got my career started. After that, I entered swimsuit
competitions at Miller Lite volleyball tournaments ,
Custom Car shows and Budweiser Boxing at the Forum.
I won lots of cash and met photographers who offered
me automotive magazine covers, swimwear catalogs and
spokesmodel posters for various companies. Things started
really cookin', so I hooked up with a professional modeling
agency to help me negotiate and keep everything straight.
I was soon landing national posters for Coors, Tecate,
Fosters, Mclean Wheels, Lanzar Speakers and a big spokesmodel
contract with Petersen Publishing. They hired me to
shoot posters for Hot Rod, 4Wheel and Sport Truck magazines.
I traveled all over the country and signed posters at
car shows for 25 weekends a year for 3 years. It was
a BLAST! Meanwhile, I was doing alot of different print
jobs at home. I shot calendars for Rigid Tool, Harley
Davidson and Freightliner. Magazines like Muscle &
Fitness and Swimwear USA. Music videos for Dwight Yoakam,
Atlantic Star and Firehouse. Then I started working
for lingerie companies like National Corset, Olga and
what I'm most well known for, Frederick's of Hollywood.
I love to wear lingerie, so working for these companies
has it's perks. I am currently with a great agency in
Los Angeles, CED. They get me tons of great work including
print, trade shows and TV. One of my favorite jobs they've
gotten me is regular stints on "The Tonight Show
with Jay Leno". I really like doing sketch comedy
and Jay is a bust up! My modeling career is going strong
right now and I'm also pursuing my music career.
