Tell us a bit about yourself.
I was born in Florida, USA but spent my childhood in the Dominican Republic. I was a very shy kid and always the teacher’s pet. When I moved back to Florida I joined the marching band and was a big band nerd. Afterwards, when I graduated, from studying economics, I pursued fitness by competing. Now, I’m in Hollywood living as one of the top fitness models and an actress. Life is great!
How long have you’ve been modelling?
For about two years. If I wasn’t modelling I’d be working in banking or finance… or perhaps a flight attendant.
What would people be most surprised to know about you?
How silly I am. I like to make jokes and lighten up the mood.
Are there any funny anecdotes you can share about this Bali shoot?
Yes! While I was doing my photo shoot, a group of monkeys came along and started throwing rocks. I personally couldn’t believe it! Thankfully, nobody was hurt, but it was hilarious nonetheless.
When do you feel sexy?
All the time because feeling sexy all starts with your attitude and I choose to be sexy every day.
What is your best asset?
I think my legs. I love the shape of them and it’s something that took hard work to build. Otherwise, I’d say my personality – most people think I’m nice and charming.
What have you learned about men over the years?
That they can’t all be compared the same.
What’s one thing men should always know about women?
When a girl is nice to you it doesn’t mean they are romantically interested in you. It’s annoying when guys assume that I’m interested in them because I’m a nice person – it kind of forces girls to not be friendly.
What do you look for in a man?
Personality, passion and drive. I love passionate people. Looks catch my attention, but I prefer an amazing personality and character to come with it. And a sense of humour and intelligence is a major turn on!
Describe your ideal date.
Riding on a hot air balloon over a countryside while drinking champagne. I would instantly fall in love if this were to happen.
What’s next for you?
I’m planning on relocating to New York City and super excited because it’s always been a dream of mine to live there.
