How would you describe
Your ideal man?
My ideal man would be laid back, clean cut, well dressed, business orientated man who is not intimidated by a strong & bold bombshell! I don't have a specific preference when it comes to race, height, age, etc. and money is NEVER a major issue
Una chica latina?
Una Chica Latina is a woman who knows her roots-- proud of where she comes from and yet knows where she is going. She is a strong woman who exudes femininity & sex appeal without even trying. She is a woman that takes advantage of every opportunity and is not intimidated of taking on any obstacle.
A perfect day?
A beautiful vibrant spring day out on the town with my baby sister doing whatever she desired.. i love her more than ANYTHING in this world!

Why do you like to be a model?
Firstly, I must say-- as a young girl.. I NEVER would have thought in a million years that I would have the opportunity to be a model. It just wasn't realistic for me. I loved sports as a young girl and could be considered some what of a 'tom boy'. Thru time however, I grew to embrace my femininity and naturally became this sex kitten I am now. Because once i began modeling, it became a form of expression for me. I can turn in to whomever I wanted behind the camera lense. Modeling also gave me the luxury of traveling-- which is my favorite hobby, allowing me to meet various different people from different walks of life. But beside the MOST important factor-- the greatest gift of all, opportunity! I must also admit that I LOVE the exposure and the glamour of it all.
What would you like to reach as a model?
I definitely am aiming to one day become celebrity model and becoming a house hold name thru print work and film. I would love to one day expand, breaking thru to international business ventures. Once i have reached that status, then the ultimate goal would be to one day be featured in major movie roles-- being a Bond Girl would be my DREAM role! However, I would also like to one day publish a successful selling book, (because i have a passion for writing) as well as design a successful selling casual yet couture clothing line for curvaceous Latina woman.
What is your relation with the camera?
The camera is my sweet escape from all reality. Once i step behind the camera, i turn into another person. Almost like an alter ego.
Who and what is your inspiration?
I would say-- strong independent woman in general are my inspiration. I am inspired by woman who know what their capable of, by woman who are aware that their fate & destiny lies in their hands and take advantage of that.
I admire & respect woman like Oprah, Beyonce, Angie Martinez, Diane Sawyer, Angela Jolie and many others.
Apart from your career what do you think is important in your life?
Aside from my career, self satisfaction is most important to me. Still having my dignity while making my way
thru the shark infested world of show business is MAJOR to me. The casting couch is a big problem in my industry and that is something i just don't participate in.
So, staying true to my morals but yet being established, successful & independent all at the same time is what i consider being self satisfied.
When you look in the mirror in the morning what do you think?
I see a ambitious young woman ready to to take on a new day.
Are you romantic?
I cannot say that i am a hopeless romantic however. I can be a little cynical about romance! Hey what can i say?? i live in New York City. We take everything for a grain of salt..
