I don't model much anymore; I hung up the heels, so to speak, when I went back to college and took up belly dancing instead.  I am a designer and own my own company, but when the mood strikes I do still like to shoot.

Mods
My hair is currently a nice ombré as the result of not re-dyeing for a couple years.  I am growing it out to about waist length; once it gets there, I'll see if I like it or not.  I have 21 piercings scattered all over my body, mainly in my head, and two tattoos: one on my hip and one on my left shoulder.  Plans are underway for more.  Many, many more.

Areas of Interest
My main interest in shooting these days is shooting my designs and for belly dancing.  I would like to shoot fashion, but I am open to a wide variety of genres, as well as discussions to come up with new ideas for shoots.  Please note: I am not interested in shooting nudes of any type.

Work Ethic
Unless you catch me on a bad day (and I mean a really bad day), you will find that I am a highly energetic and unique individual who loves to laugh and have a good time.  I work hardest when I am passionate about what I'm doing.  I like to plan ahead and double check details to make sure that (a) nothing has been forgotten and (b) all the wrinkles are ironed out.  I do my best to make sure that I am not only on time, but early.  I am professional when in such a setting, and I expect those in the same setting to act as such.
