Occupation: Former Phoenix Suns Dancer


An Arizona native, I have always been a big city dreamer and aspire to be a TV personality. Currently a Phoenix Suns Dancer, Fox Sports AZ intern and senior at Arizona State University in the Hugh Downs School of communication. I’m naturally a positive person who is goal-driven and very ambitious. I thrive on hard work, good karma and believe everything happens for a reason. I always put my happiness first because a happy life is the a good life.

Opportunities arose though my dance career and I discovered I had a passion for everything about modeling. I love fashion, the performance aspect photography, and enjoy the challenge of doing different shoots.
