There’s a lot to love about stunning model, college graduate, entrepreneur and regular Destination MAXIM beauty JENNIFER ALLEN…
Tell us a bit about yourself, Jennifer.
Well, I come from a small family, and I lived in a small ranch-style house in Scottsdale, Arizona USA. I grew up playing soccer and tennis, always running around outdoors. I loved being in nature from a young age and knew I wanted to travel and explore the world when I grew up. As soon as I turned 18, I went to California to attend the University of San Diego. My third year of college, I decided I wanted to study in Florence, Italy and that is where I fell in love with modelling and the fashion industry.
What would people be most surprised to know about you?
That I’m a college graduate and an entrepreneur.
When do you feel sexy?
When I feel confident and happy in my own skin – with or without make-up.
What is your best asset?
My legs and my dry sense of humour.
You’ve been on a few Destination MAXIM tours. Got any fun memories to share?
It’s just always such a blast getting to know the other girls and hanging out with each other at our private villas!
What would you tell anyone who wants to come on a Destination MAXIM tour?
I would highly recommend it to any model who is serious about taking their content to the next level and working with such a talented crew. It’s such a rewarding experience and you get to build new friendships with wonderful people!
What have you learned about men over the years?
I have learned that every man is unique and has different needs and life priorities. At the end of the day most men desire appreciation, respect, love and friendship.
What’s one thing people should know about women?
People should know that women are unique and not monolithic. Most women just want to feel loved, understood and beautiful.
Describe your ideal man.
A good sense of humour, loyalty, empathy, emotional intelligence, being supportive, honesty and being responsible.
How does your ideal date go down?
Eating at a swanky sushi bar, followed by after dinner drinks people watching while enjoying the sunset.
What can we get you at the bar?
Anything that’s a fruity cocktail. Lemon drop martinis are my go-to drink.
What’s next for you?
I’m heading to New York to interview with some agencies and continue to pursue any new opportunities that come my way!
Finally, what is your life motto?
“C’est la vie!”
