I was born in Grand Rapids Michigan, I currently still live there. I will be relocating to New York this
summer to continue my modeling career. Grand Rapids only offers so many opportunities! I attended
East Kentwood High School, while I was there I was a football and basketball cheerleader for 2 years. That
was a ton of fun! I soon graduated and attended Grand Rapids Community College where I studied basic
classes for my fashion merchandising degree. I will continue college in New York at the Fashion Institute
Of Technology where I will soon become a fashion stylist.
I have always had passion for fashion! I was voted best dressed in high school lol. My modeling all started
when I worked at a bar in Grand Rapids where I participated in a Hawiian Tropic contest. From that day I
went on to get "runner up" at the Michigan State Finals in 2004. The experience made me want to further
strive for more exposure, and thats when I decided I wanted to continue modeling. From that day till now I
have grown as a person and I better understand the industry and what it takes to succeed. I am very hard
working and determined to never give up in life on any of the tasks I put myself to. Life is what you make
of it, the sky is the limit and thats how I live my life day to day.
My family and freinds have been behind me 100% from day one and I love them all very much. I want to
thank them for always believing in me, and trust me... I will NEVER let you down. I recently did a reality
TV show called "Supermodel Showdown". Please look for more info on my myspace page. The show was a
huge success, thanks to Joe Murphy for making it all happen. You are truly the kindest man and I value
our friendship and whats in store ahead.
Working with DJ Perry was a great
experience. At first I didn't think he
was very outgoing because he was
always very quiet and when he did talk
he was only about buissness lol.
Well... not to long into the show I saw
DJ's real side. DJ is very outgoing and
fun to be around... a true character
with a great personality! He was very
compassionate about the show and you
could tell he cherished his job. I would
love to work with DJ many more times
in the future!
Thanks again DJ for a great experience!
