Hello to all of MM! I am a MODEL and student FASHION DESIGNER/STYLIST. My biggest and most passionate dream of all my life has been to work in Fashion. Fashion has always taken me away from the stress of the real world. It's where I can be the "real" me in front of the camera in my world where it all makes sense. I am a resilient, versatile, energetic, and hardworking talent. I'M IN LOVE WITH WHAT I DO. I've always felt that this is who I am, nothing else fits my life. I ALWAYS SAY THAT "FASHION IS NOT FITTING IN, BUT A FREE TICKET TO INDIVIDUALITY". That's a ticket I value.





    I started modeling at 8 years old when I entered my first fashion show. I started competing in beauty pageants at age 11 and did that annually until age 14. I was crowned winner of 1/4 pageants. At age 14 I joined a modeling team at a local mall in Tuscaloosa called "Teen Team". I walked in spring and fall shows and did freeze modeling for 2 years as a part of that team. After high school graduation I decided to accomplish my life long dream to become a successful model and designer. On October 26, 2010, I showcased my first collection at the the Univeristy of Alabama's annual ROCK THE RUNWAY FASHION SHOW.
 
  Regardless of FASHION, my ultimate goal and DESTINY is to become the largest PHILANTHROPIST of my age. This is my motivation to become financially successful in the fashion industry, NOT to buy a mansion on every coast. As one of  my mentors always say, "YOU CAN'T GET ANYTHING OF LASTING VALUE FROM THE WORLD WITHOUT GIVING SOMETHING OF LASTING VALUE TO THE WORLD FIRST".


    To all other artist on MM. Always give a 110% no matter how small the job or opportunity is. Its best to Network with other models not envy them (this is of your better interest). Have faith in God and yourself. AND REMEMBER......YOU ONLY FAIL IF YOU QUIT!

    "Take your eyes off the prize and put them on the process. SUCCESS is a JOURNEY, not a DESTINATION. Walk by FAITH and not by SIGHT".

    Just thought I'd share some inspiration. Much love and the best of wishes to you all.
