1. How long have you been modeling?

a model but I have appeared in a couple of magazines, print ads and
commercails.

hard working and lovable.
4. We see that you are also a professional track & field athlete how
are you able to balance the both? Track comes 1st, i have been a professional
athletes for 10 years now and I love it. The modeling opportunities have came
from my athletic abilities which I enjoy a lot and I hope to pursue more
modeling ventures in the future.
5. Seeing that you are a track & field athlete I assume you
have to be very fit. So with that being said do you have any models that ask
for workout tips or do you even personally train Any models?
-The workout tips I
would give for models are to, drink lots of water, take multi vitamins, do lots
of stretching, do situps and crunches to maintain a flat stomach and to go on a
20minute jog 3 times a week. Models need to look long and sleek so I wouldnt
recommend too much heavy weights.
6. Who do you think is harder to understand men or women? And why?
-I
believe men are harder to understand because in our society men are taught to
keep their feelings in and to never show weakness. I feel that a lot of bury
many emotions inside that they might not know how to express themselves well.
As women we are taught to show emotion and to be loving and caring from an
early age. men and women are both complex creatures that need companionship and
love. When either one finds the right person who understands and accepts for
they are it is a beautiful union.
7.What's some work in the future that you have coming up?
