Why I want to join the Temple
I'm an artist and truth-seeker who's insatiably curious and always open to enlightenment and connecting with other kindred, free-spirits. My interests are eclectic and passionate, varying widely from History and Photography to Archaeology, Genealogy, Parapsychology, Ancient Mysteries, Biblical Prophecies, Yoga, Painting, Antiquities, Native American Studies, Astronomy, Travel, Science, Theology, Nature, The Arts & Artists, Homeopathy & Alternative Medicines, Architecture, Self-empowerment, Candlemaking, Cooking, Aromatherapy, and Gardening.
About Myself and My interests
I'm an International Model, Artist, and Photographer of Native American & Irish ancestry whose eclectic body of work has appeared in tv, print, runway, fashion, and the glamour industry worldwide. I've enjoyed the distinct pleasure of working alongside numerous Top Photographers from the U.S. & Europe like Ulf Scherling, Rene Hoff, and Karsten Skarbal, as well as other phenomenal Artists like ArteKaos, Giorgio Uccellini, Lucie Brouillard, Andy VanOverberghe, and Bryan Smoak to name a few.

As a model, my career in the industry began at the tender age of 13 with the prestigious Reflections Modeling Agency in central Florida. Over time my body-of-work has spanned the field from fashion & runway, to publication & promotion, spokesmodel, art modeling, and International events. I am the resident Muse at Kaos Studios in Bologna, Italy & was broadcast LIVE mainstage via Eurostat satellite from the 2009 World Bodypainting Festival in Seeboden, Austria to over 4 million viewers in 40 countries. As well as being the inspiration in many artistic works currently exhibited in art galleries, magazines, and other venues around the world, I am featured in the pages of the Italian art book, "ArteKaos: Airbrush & Art", vol. 1, Arte Contemporanea, Emozioni di Alessandro Rinaldi, as well as the book's Cover Model in a portrait entitled, "The Muse".

As a photographer, I embarked upon my passionate pursuit in 2006, being primarily self-taught. At the present, I specialize in glamour, architectural, abstract, and travel genres though all forms of photography piques my interests. To date, a number of my own photographic works have garnered special peer accolades and are prominently featured in several industry portals & galleries worldwide.

When not in front of the camera, I can often be found behind it as a devoted wife, mother, abstract painter, advocate of women & children's rights, bringing awareness to Autism & Asperger's Syndrome, and a fervent supporter of anti-Human Trafficking.
