What were some of your aspirations growing up? Did you always want to be<br />
a model? When I was younger, I thought I wanted to be a singer. I used to love<br />
to sing but I quickly grew out of that. So, no I haven't always wanted to be a<br />
model. I did know that I always wanted to be in the spotlight. I wanted to be<br />
known for something.<br />
Who are your biggest influences? My mom is my biggest influence. If I can<br />
only be half of the mother to my future children as she was to me and my<br />
brother, my children would have some astonishing lives.<br />
“Have patience because ‘no’<br />
means that there is a better<br />
‘yes’ right behind it.”<br />
How have you developed your career? Hard work,<br />
determination, and humility. This industry is about<br />
relationships and word gets around fast. So, I treat<br />
everyone with respect. You never know who you will<br />
come across again.<br />
How do you seek out opportunities? I have always<br />
searched for my own jobs, even when I had an agent. I<br />
look on casting sites and just word of mouth.
