Time to get more acquainted with this American beauty…
THE BEST THING ABOUT MY MAXIM FEATURE IS…
That we were able to have each era and show a classic style that’s not seen too often.
WHEN I’M NOT POSING FOR MAXIM I’M…
Cooking, writing, trying to stay healthy and taking care of my son. I’m also trying to start a party planning and private events company that you can check out on my Instagram.
MY BEST ASSET IS…
My personality and my want for everyone around me to feel happy. I think you should help the people you care about and who care about you. Life is too short to only think of yourself and your own happiness.
I FEEL SEXY…
After a long bath and after getting a facial and doing it myself and slipping into some comfy PJs or nothing when my bedding is freshly clean because it’s your genuine face and body without any enhancements. You really feel comfortable and when I’m comfortable I feel sexy.
THE MOST EMBARRASSING MOMENT IN MY LIFE SO FAR IS…
I don’t really get embarrassed anymore – whatever happens makes me who I am.
THE BEST COUNTRY I’VE BEEN TO IS…
Australia – duh! The people, the culture, the wildlife, the beaches…
THE THINGS I KNOW ABOUT AUSTRALIA ARE…
You have over 60 wine regions! I love wine, so that’s pretty awesome! I also love golf and Australia also has one of the longest golf courses in the world.
A GUY COULD WIN HIS WAY TO MY HEART BY…
Knowing how to cook, being adventurous, intellectual and knowing how to make me laugh.
MY PERFECT DATE WOULD INVOLVE…
Anything outdoors since we have been in quarantine! I miss outdoor adventures.
THE BEST PERSON TO FOLLOW ON INSTAGRAM OTHER THAN ME IS…
@kinsey. I love the different daredevil things she does and she also loves to travel so she always gives me new ideas on my next trips.
ONE THING A GUY SHOULD ALWAYS KNOW ABOUT WOMEN IS…
We always remember when you don’t fulfil your promises and we never forget when you put us down. So, act right.
MY FAVOURITE MOVIES ARE…
The Notebook, The Shinning, Mean Girls and You’ve Got Mail.
IF I COULD SPEND A DAY WITH ANYONE IN THE WORLD IT WOULD BE…
Naomi Campbell. She’s an amazing, powerful businesswoman and I think I could learn a lot from her.
ONE THING I’D CHANGE ABOUT THE WORLD IS…
Having less hateful racist and judgmental people.
MY SUPERPOWER WOULD BE…
Mind reading because you would be able to get anything you want, would know arguments before people had them and know what they want without asking.
PUBLIC NUDITY IS…
Life — and needs to be accepted.
THE BEST PIECE OF ADVICE ANYONE HAS EVER GIVEN ME IS…
“You’re the best person at being you. You are one of one.”
IN THE COMING WEEKS I WILL BE…
Hopefully going back to normality and not stuck in the house because of COVID-19.
IN FIVE YEARS I’D LIKE TO BE…
Happy and taking life how it comes. ■
