Why do you like modeling?
It’s a step out of my every day norm. I’m a single mom, own my own business, and live in a very small town. Modeling has introduced me to new people and places, and has given me an amazing outlook on life. I grew up very shy and felt like less than an average girl. But through modeling I have learned to hold my head up high and that it’s okay to feel positive about yourself. I like to think that helps me set better standards for young girls.
Your fashion icons and why?
Marilyn Monroe, Kate Hudson, Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon. I could name a dozen more. I like their style because it’s beautiful but not over the top.
Describe your wardrobe choices when you’re not modeling?
I’m a barber by trade, so at work it’s jeans, a t-shirt, and very comfortable shoes. Outside of work, I love dresses. Short or long, fun and casual or dressed to the nines. Any color. And a nice four-inch heel to match the dress.
What’s your guilty pleasure?
Chocolate! Lots of CHOCOLATE!!!
The one thing you can never leave home without?
Phone, of course, Lipstick is a must. And I’m afraid to say, but oil blotting sheets in the summer (you’ve got to stay looking good).
Favorite music?
Anything. I honestly love all music. My presets and my playlists are kind of funny to see.
Favorite food?
Italian.
