<b>Day job:</b> Nonprofit Management
<b>How long have you been modeling: </b>Since 2009
<b>Where were you discovered:</b> I met a part time male model from NYC at a DC party in the summer of 2009. He introduced me to model mayhem, a social networking site for people in the industry. Using that site and <a class="taxInlineTagLink" id="ORCRP006023" title="Facebook" href="/topic/arts-culture/computer-networking-internet/social-media/facebook-ORCRP006023.topic">Facebook</a> I networked with photographers, agencies and other models to get experience and assignments.
<b>The key to keeping your physique:</b> The main key is consistency and diet. I work out or do some kind of fitness activity 5-6 times a week, every week. I mix it up and stick to activities I enjoy. I try to eat sensibly 85% of the time so I can splurge on special occasions.(But not before a show.)
<b>Least favorite thing about modeling:</b> Like with anything in life, rejection. Rejection sucks. I went to some agencies in Miami where I spent more time riding the elevator up than the time it took a talent rep to tell me I don't have the kind of look they go for.
