"I like being a model because it helps me bring my alter ego out. I can be whoever and whatever I want when I am modeling. I can mold and shape myself and become things I never dreamed before."

Erika Santos

When did you start modeling?
I'm still fresh to the modeling scene..

What have you reached so far?
I've been Stepping Out magazines model of the week. I've shot for Rolowear NYC clothing and have been in Live Wire magazine. I've been involved with VC Designz, the best body painting in the world.

And what do you like to reach?
I would love to be featured in more magazines, maybe a few commercials and hopefully one day move onto television and maybe even the big screen. What is your relation with the camera? I love the camera, its good to me. I love being in front of it and behind it.

What is your favorite type of shoot?
I love glamour shoots, they're classy and sexy without being to revealing.

Who/what is your inspiration?
My inspiration is my mother. She isn't a model but she is glamorous to me and has always shown me that beauty is within and then will shine through to others.

Apart from modeling what do you consider important in life?
I strongly consider family, friends and education to be highly important. My family will always come first before anything. I love them more than words could ever explain.

How would you describe

    • Yourself?
      a very outspoken person, I will tell you the truth to your face even if it hurts because I would rather be honest than lie. I'm a huge family oriented person and would rather spend time with my family than any other person or group in the world.
    • Your ideal man?
      Educated, intelligent, love basketball (lol) or just sports in general. He would have a good sense of humor and be easy to get along with. He would have a mind of his own and know that its ok to follow before he can lead as long as its in a positive manner.
    • A perfect day?
      a perfect day for me would be spent on a nice sandy beach with either my family or my boyfriend with a good Ernest Gaines book and endless Shirley temples for me to drink.
