\nI’m part Irish and part Native American<\/p>\n

Birthsign:<\/strong>
\nAquarius<\/p>\n

How discovered:<\/strong>
\nI actually sent in these horribly blurry pictures my boyfriend took of me (in the bedroom closet) to Elite. I told them I was interested in modeling and was looking for a mother agency in New York. I heard back almost immediately asking if we could Skype. I Skyped with the guys that handle all of my business now and they flew me to New York. I was instantly hooked when I met everyone at Elite and ended up signing!<\/p>\n

Favorite things:<\/strong>
\nThis is really hard to answer because I’m the world’s most indecisive human. I really like traveling and everything that comes along with it like going out to dinners, shopping, going to museums, etc.<\/p>\n

What are you listening to at the moment?<\/strong>
\nBTSTU- Jai Paul (forever a favorite); Clair De Lune – Flight Facilities<\/p>\n

Favorite movie, tv show:<\/strong>
\nMy favorite movie is Dirty Dancing. I love all of the old classics. Right now I’m binge watching Orange is the New Black :)<\/p>\n

Favorite designer, fragrance or beauty product:<\/strong>
\nMy favorite fragrance is TokyoMilk Dead Sexy. Its really hard to find but I’ve been stuck on it for years.<\/p>\n

What would you be doing if you weren’t modeling?<\/strong>
\nBefore I became a model I was going to school and working as a full time nanny! I’ll probably just focus on finishing school after modeling. I’ve been thinking about studying psychology and find it really interesting!!<\/p>\n

What’s something uncool that you love anyway?<\/strong>
\nI’m obsessed with crossword puzzles. I have all the apps and my PR for the daily mini is 32 seconds :) I do the NY Times Crossword in the newspaper every morning. It’s super nerdy but it’s so relaxing to me! <\/p>\n

What’s the best thing about your hometown\/country?<\/strong>
\nI miss how quiet and calm Arkansas is. I live right in the Boston Mountains so whenever I’ve been away for a bit I return home and remember how beautiful it is. <\/p>\n

Which brand would you really love to model for?<\/strong>
\nI’d love to work with Alexander Wang… I’ve been obsessed with his clothes for years and lately I’ve been wearing his bags with everything! It all has such a tough girl feel to it so it fits my style well. I also love watching the Chanel shows because the settings are so unique… I’d kill to walk for Karl. <\/p>\n

Place you would love to visit:<\/strong>
\nI really want to visit Italy. I love their food and would love to see all of the art and architecture. Rome and Venice are at the top of the list!<\/p>\n

Currently you’re obsessed with\/about:<\/strong>
\nI’ve got really into cooking lately. I watch the Food Network all the time now lol. I think it would be a really nice quality to be a great cook so I’m trying to get really good at it. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
