I received my first real taste of the arts in Alabama. Where I took as well as taught many types of dance. Even dancing with choreographer Honey Daniels. In 2007, I traveled to Shizouka City, Sendai, Nagoya, and Tokyo, Japan to teach dance. Throughout high school, I was very active in high school theatre serving as the drama club president and the Student Director for productions. Some of those productions were Grease, Pipi Longstockings, and Back to the 80's. I was very active in the community theatre and held roles in Beauty and the Beast, and High School Musucal. I was in high school show choir and more often not, we won choral competitions.

After high school, I relocated to Georgia where the art and music scene was a bit more active. During the time I was in Georgia, I began to become more and more social on the internet where I met Owen Tate. After speaking with Owen for some time, he invited me up to record in his studio. Once I arrived, Owen took me out and introduced me into his circles and landed me a few modeling gigs. I then decided to stay in New York and peruse a life in the arts. If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere.

I have now been in New York for 8 months. Thanks to Owen, I have modeled for Augusto Giachino, Thomas Scholts, Bob Schierer, Antoni Ramiro, and Aadam Bombb. I have also danced with Casa De La Blanca. I was the talent coordinator for Suicide Girl Becky Brutality's video shoot. I have collaborated and performed with Celso of Webster Hall, whose creative fashion genious has contributed greatly to my style. The most exciting part of this phase of my life has been meeting so many great artists who have truly been innovative with their craft. Owen's circle have been so warm and embracing, nurturing and giving that I have even surprised myself at how far I have come in just 8 months.
