Where are you from? Where are you based now and do you travel for shoots?

I am originally from New Mexico and now live in Virginia. I travel for shoots if they are paid and travel expenses are covered.

Who or what inspired you to become a model?

My inspiration to model came from my love for fitness and bodybuilding. I love the art created by awesome photographers that highlight not only the muscle but the femininity of an awesome physique. I work hard for my physique and having it captured and accentuated by a great photographer is my main goal.

How and when did you start modeling?

I started modeling in 2010 when I was approached by a photographer and I fell in love with the art he created.

What type of modeling do you enjoy the most?

I love fitness, bikini, and implied art nude the most.

What do you look for when deciding to work with a photographer?

I like to see a uniqueness that catches my eye and makes me want to work with them.

Which models or other artists currently inspire you?

There are many bodybuilders that truly inspire me with some of their beautiful work. I just love the unique, shadowy, beautiful pics.

What would be your dream shoot?

My dream shoot would be implied/nude on the rocks of a beautiful beach. Something edgy and artsy to highlight my musculature.

How important is social media in your success?

Social media is the best way to show my hard work and the beautiful work of the photographer.

What else do you like to do outside of modeling?

I am a professional bodybuilder which takes up a lot of my time when I’m in season. I love spending time with my family boating, going to the beach, and enjoying my kid’s soccer games.

What’s the best career advice you can give to new models?

Please know who you are meeting with, ask lots of questions, and always ask for references. Enjoy yourself and only do what you are comfortable with because you want to be happy in the end.
