1. I have shot with numerous photographers from around the US. Such as, Steven Sexton, Dana Kehr and Steve Mills.

2. I appeared in my first fashion show, at the age of 12, in a local mall in La Grande, OR. My first pageant, and subsequent title, was in 1989. I have held such titles as: '91 OREGON Cinderella Teen; '92 National Young Miss Co-Ed; & '99 Ms. International Petite Oregon, among others.

3. I started ballet at age 6, and piano at (around) age 8. I stopped dancing, but picked up baton twirling as a child, and started official lessons at age 14. (I had also stopped taking formal piano lessons, but have taken vocal, musical theory and musical theater classes.) I re-started jazz and ballet classes at age 15 until age 17. I kept my dance skills sharp, however, as a cheerleader in the 12th grade, with regular aerobic excercise/dance activity, and through bellydance classes, which I took for approximately 6 months, at age 25. I would like to teach baton in the future.

4. I have been a well-recognized internet model since the age of 22. I have appeared on over 100 websites, and even took 2nd place in a well known internet lingerie modeling contest. I was also a paid "trophy girl," at a local race track, in 1999, and a "Bud" girl, for a local "Toughman" contest" that same year.

5. I participated in theater as a child and in highschool. Post school, I have appeared on stage with 2 local theater groups, in plays such as "Dracula," "Splendor in the grass," and "Steel magnolia's," as well as others. Once yearly, I have the honor of portraying one of the NW's most "infamous" working-girls, "Klondike Kate," in the annual Pendleton Underground "comes-to-life" tour. I have been involved with this project since my "early" twenties!

6. I appeared in a northwest-based info-mercial for "The Avalon Clinic," in Tacoma, and as an extra in the independent film "Dog story." I have also appeared in a local commercial for a salon I used to work at.

7. I used to "do" makeup and hair as a hobby, when I was a teenager. In the early nineties, I started beauty school, and have been specializing in natural hair, nail and skin care ever since. When I lived in Oregon, I had a freelance hair/cosmetology business, and worked part-time as a cosmetology instructor, as well.

8. I have had several poems published; as well as editorials and human-interest pieces through our local newspaper, and the internet. I also reviewed movies for The East Oregonian for over 4 years. I am currently working on music, as well as my novel, and upcoming e-zine and more!
