Statement
I never gave modeling my all in my late teens. I wasn't ready for that world. At that time, my sense of self, my ability to recognize my beauties inside and out, and overall confidence had not developed. For these reasons, I put that career on the self knowing that I would return to it. During the last ten years, I have stumbled to find my way. After a severe car accident that left me with facial scars and a head trauma, I had to fight to find a sense of self. After being accepted to a college only to be told there was no way I could graduate due to my injury, I fought my way through and received my degree in psychology. I then moved to where I grew up and teamed up with my mom and brother to enter into the real estate field. My job everyday is to help people obtain their goals. What I have learned, is that it is not about a pay check, it is doing the very best for the people that seek my knowledge.

This world can be very scary. However, I know that we each have to do our part. I am so passionate about different issues that our world faces. Everything from our men and women in uniform, to our health care crisis, to AIDS affecting our world. Then I think about what the future looks like for my child, your child, the children right here in America living in poverty.

I live by a mantra of never judging, knowing that my way is not always the right way, and most of all loving. Loving my neighbor, my friend, and even those who may have hurt me. It is learning and teaching that we must do what it takes to do our part in this world to make it the best place we can.

I miss modeling and I am ready to return full force. My years of being away from it have given me more strength, character, and beauty. My hope is not only to be put in front of the camera for my looks but to someday get to the place to have the ability to have a larger venue to be heard.
