What’s your background in modeling? When and why did you get started? Was it for the glamour? The money? Pure kicks?

I am a Runway/Print Model, I First started Modeling in my senior year of high school at Crossland High School in Maryland. When I graduated I went on to Model for  Pure Raw Couture Model troop at Shaw University and have now been modeling non stop for the past 4 years. The reason I started modeling was to find an outlet that I could build up my self confidence and peek my creativity.

Who are some of your favorite models and designers, and why? 

My favorite Model of ALL times is Grace Jones One of my favorites from the Newer generations would be Slick woods to me slick is like the modern day Grace I admire them for being able to remain who they truly are and always willing to step outside of the fashion box and be true TREND setters. Favorite Designer is Jeremy Scott his detailing is beyond this world!

How would you describe your style? 

I would describe my Style as Afro Hippie Because of how free spirited I am. I generally shop at any and every thrift store or from my own closet taking something old and revamping it into a new creation. Over the last few years I have done a lot of Runway shows From Kansas City Fashion Week to NY Fashion Week and I’m excited to say that this will be my fourth published work this year! I have previously been published on Look Vine for my Street Style and Ayme Magazine based in New York and recently in Ink Therapy Magazine.
