Get acquainted with the influencer and inked-up American beauty who you can call Tab…
Welcome to MAXIM, Tab. Tell us a bit about yourself.
Thanks for having me. Well, I was born in Los Angeles, USA but moved to Vernal in Utah when I was just two. Then in 2000 I moved to St. Augustine, Florida due to my parents divorcing. I was always the quiet one – never popular but great academically. I received a full ride scholarship but went right into the work field working as a paralegal for seven years. Modelling was always a hobby and is something I enjoy – I have been signed twice to agencies, one in Orlando and one in Miami.
How would you describe yourself in five words?
Goofy, introvert, loving, carefree and adventurous.
What would people be most surprised to know about you?
I was raised LDS (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) Mormon, not to be confused with FLDS (Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints) – there is a difference.
What’s your best asset?
People always compliment me on my smile or my butt – so probably one of those!
When do you feel sexy?
I feel sexy when I do photo shoots. To get in front of a camera and wear things that show off my body, and get all dolled up, makes me feel so confident. I definitely recommend anyone who wants a confidence boost to try it out!
What have you learnt about men over the years?
They need to feel safe in order to be vulnerable. I hate the fact that men have been taught that emotions make them weak. It’s not true!
What’s one thing men should know about women?
If women have an attitude, we either need food or sex – possibly both!
What do you look for in a man?
Loyalty, a nice smile, motivated, grounded and security in himself is a must. I also love my freedom and space, so someone who likes to do their own thing from time to time is always a good thing.
Describe your ideal date.
Dates make me SO nervous. Hmmm, probably doing some type of sport – I enjoy being more interactive, so I prefer a date that is more exciting than the typical eating and talking. I want to see your personality in action!
What is your go-to drink?
A Pineapple Upside Down, if I want a crazy night. A chill night would just be any beer – no dark lager though.
What is your life motto?
Always take a few minutes a day to enjoy the moment. Take in your surroundings and just appreciate what you have in the now.
Where do you see yourself in five years?
I just want to be happy with my girls and be able to continue shooting and making content for others to enjoy. I would love to act as well – see what happens! ■
