BUSY SCHEDULE
I am a half Italian/american. I was born in upstate New York, but moved to Alabama when I started high school. I graduated high school and went to a community college in a\Alabama for 2 years.
Now I live in South Beach, Miami where I love to go out, meet people, eat dinner, watch movies, explore the island, skateboard, play football on the beach, run and workout, rap, take pictures, dance, play video games, surf the web, and hang out with my friends.
A FEELING OF EMPOWERMENT
My friend who was modeling set me up with his mother agent. We started working together in January. I had my first photoshoot close to home with a local photographer. It was very empowering feeling to have a photographer take my pictures. I enjoyed it a lot. I just started modeling this year, but feel that I have already achieved a lot.
I have it drilled into my head and my heart that the sky is the limit, so i'm trying to shoot with any and every campaign. I would really like to shoot with high end fashion designers and photographers. I haven't been to the NYC market but I am looking forward to working there, and overseas.
BEING GOOD EYE CANDY
Fashion for me is being good eye-candy. I just do what looks good and feels right. The modeling world is very deep. There are many directions you can go. You definitely have to keep your head on your shoulders and your eyes on the prize.
HOLDING THE SHIVER
I love how every photographer has a certain niche about them. I've seen some good ones, and some bad ones. One time i was shooting with a photog doing an underwear shot under an overpass and the traffic was backed up. The only ones who could see over the side were the 18 wheelers becuz they sit higher.
It was about 35 degrees outside and the wind was blowing. The truckers would honk their horns and yell funny sayings at me like "it's too damn cold for that" like I didn't know. I would have to hold my shiver for in between shots.
"GET YOU"
Key to success is focus, determination, commitment, and hard work. The upside to modeling is you are surrounded by awesome, fun, happy, energetic, good looking people. The down sides are the people who are out there trying to "get you" so to speak.
ALL PURPOSE
I love to rock a pair of gym shorts with a t shirt and some flip flops or running shoes. It's the all purpose outfit! I can wear it to bed, out to lunch, to the gym, the beach, around the house, to take out the trash... lol.
