I am the current Miss North Texas International and will be competing for Miss Texas next April! I am here for networking and rarely take non-paying jobs unless I see a great opportunity to grow and expand my portfolio.  Feel free to ask if I will to TFCD with you, but know that I am selective!  I will not do anything sexually explicit.  No nude or lingerie, so do NOT ask.   

I am very professional, easy to work with, and do my job well.  I am also a dancer, which makes my work even better!
