When things are garbage…
MAKE THEM FASHION!
Senior year of college, one of my acting professors handed me a South Beach Diet book instead of a script...
...I never read the book.
Instead, I became one of the first curvy models on Project Runway!
My unexpected modeling career has made me a proud multi-hyphenate artist: actor, curve model, and Founder/Creative Director of The 36-24-36 Project, a body positive photo series and storytelling platform which exhibited with international arts organizations in Manhattan and Washington, DC.
Currently based in NY, but have my toes in a few other places and can work as an LA, ATL or NC local. Raised in the foothills outside of Asheville, NC.
Think Blue Ridge BBQ queen instead of homecoming.
I learned to drive in a minivan with no working gauges! So you know I’m resourceful (and lucky to be alive).
I ride western, got my BFA from UNCSA, and still have game from my Junior Olympic volleyball days.
If life’s a runway, this rough-and-tumble-runway-model is taking it in stride, and in awe of every surprise.
UP NExt:
You’ll see me as Kinsley in the 7-episode series ‘Kinsley Vs’! Follow our production and process at this link: Queens Bird Films.
One of my latest projects, ‘Duvar’, was an official selection at festivals worldwide, including The Diversity In Cannes Short Film Showcase.
As a model, I’ve recently become one of the first curvy models for designer brand Kate Spade!
