I am a fiery, flexible, energetic, and creative woman who is always up for a bit of an adventure. I would like to do some more modeling work and hope to make it another career.
At the moment I am following my dream of dancing. I spent a few years in NYC teaching Swing and Ballroom. I also teach Salsa, Balboa, Blues, and Argentine Tango, however, Belly dancing is my deepest passion. Performing is where my soul truly shines. The elaborate makeup and decadent costuming brings a smile to my lips. Then I turn on the music and release my hips. I have so much fun entertaining and making others happy. That is one of the reasons I also love modeling.
While taking dance classes in NYC I was asked to do some runway work for Danskin, and that lead to some modeling and promotional work. I instantly fell in love with the camera. I have always been captivated by great photography. Once I realized I could be a part of it, I became intrigued by the possibilities and have fallen in love with collaborating with other talented artists.
I have worked with some wonderful photographers and make-up artists in NYC, LA, and Sweden. I am currently living in Seattle, but travel quite a bit.
The world always needs good artists, just as people will always need a release, an escape, a smile, and something to challenge or inspire them. I hope to be a part of some of those enchanting and powerful images.

I have done some professional modeling in NYC and LA. With each shoot you learn something about the industry and something about yourself. I have meant some people that I don't care to work with again and some that I hope our paths cross several more times. When a model understands her body and movement, and a photographer understands lighting and has a good eye, fun things happen!
One of my favorite runway gigs was for Danskin. They had plenty of fresh fruit and sweets for rehearsals as well as events and they also gave us a bag of dance goodies to go along with our pay check. That's how you treat a model! ;)
I have also worked in some less than ideal conditions, but when you have a light heart and respect each other you can still have a great time, and have some amazing photos to go with the crazy story when the shoot is done.
I was also Snow White and Sleeping Beauty in Tokyo for Disneyland's 20th anniversary. Sabishii Nihon!
