I was born and raised in Long Beach, California. Although fashion and entertainment always held a special place in my heart, I lived most of my life with the intentions of being a D1 athlete. I played basketball for 15 years under the assumption that it was what I was meant to do. Even with all the glory in front of me, eventually it became unfulfilling. I decided to take a new direction in life and become more in touch with the creative aspects of myself.

I eventually was scouted for modeling through Instagram and since then haven’t looked back. Modeling has not only opened doors for new opportunities, but has opened my eyes as well as to what my true purpose is whether that be modeling, fashion, film, or even directing. I am currently enrolled in school studying to be a Psychology major, still deciding the career I want to take with it. I like to say I do a little bit of everything from outdoor activities such as hiking and surfing, but also enjoy the city life filled with art, music, and entertainment. I’ll always find a way to make the most out of my environment.
