Why did you want to become a model?
I always have believed I have had the potential of using my looks and confident personality in something which I would enjoy. I love being the centre of attention which is PERFECT for modeling.

How did you get started in modeling?
I started by doing a very small catwalk show, and from there the work just got bigger and bigger…which I become better at each time

How has your life changed after you involved?
My work is become for more busy and my lifestyle has changed to fit modeling in with my current job as a designer…I would love to model full time if I had enough work and contracts.

What is your favorite part about being a model?
I love catwalk shows and photo shoots. The best part is the actual modeling itself. Posing to become the eye of attention and pure elegance.

What are your likes and dislikes about modeling?
I love wearing all the clothes and the makeups and seeing the work and finished piece once the pics have been edited and finialised. I definetly will say the worse part of modeling is waiting around for others to sort there scheduals out and also if the out door shoots are cold.

What are the qualities for you to be model?
My height is 6ft1” My body frame is a cut above the rest, being a fitness trainer I have always kept in excellent shape. I have great facial features and feel I have a very strong and unique look.

Who are your influences?
My parents are my influences. They have worked very hard to become established business people, they had nothing when they first come to the UK now they have everything they ever dreamed of….I look up to that and one day will like to be like that.

What was the hardest challenge for you?
My hardest challenge was in Portugal. I done a shoot for art nudes, the set was made to look like body of the gods. I was modeling to be like a god, I was nude but nothing was show…..I found being nude on front of an audience hard at first. But they all was very professional about it, and encouraged great work and results from me.

What types of assignments are you attracted most?
I love fashion and catwalk shows…..but anything in the modeling field is a great inspiration for me, and I love doing all sorts of work.

What are your most memorable modeling experiences? Itcould be good or bad...
My most memorable was the shoot I had to do for Photoworld, I was sprayed in pure gold and was supposed to look pure strength power and sexy…..the gold paint was hard work to keep on the skin and it flaked a lot….so not moving and posing like a power model was memorable in both good and bad ways

What would bring a smile to your face?
Knowing I have done a great shoot.

What projects are you currently working on?
I am doing some TV commercials, just finished a fashion shoot and a sports magazione shoot. I be doing some more catwalk shows in the bext coming weeks

My plan now is to relax as much as possible to look forward for a busy and prosperious new year of 2008.
