Classic pinup has become a huge phenomena lately, what about it first captured your interest?

I have always been interested in the 1940's through 1960's era. From the lifestyle, clothing they wore, to the way they did their hair and makeup. Growing up I would look up to models such as Marilyn Monroe and Betty Page and I was always reading a ton of books about Marilyn.

What do you think about pinup becoming part of the mainstream culture?

I think that it's lovely that more people are embracing it.

What is it that excites you about pinup modeling?

Being in front of the camera and working with passionate people that also bring a great energy. It's always nice when you meet others that have a huge passion because it inspires me.

Are there any other creative mediums you work in?

Yes, I am also a Photographer and a Make-up Artist which works out well because I understand different aspects rather than just modeling.

What are your favorite types of outfits to model in?

Lingerie because it make me feel sexy, vintage inspired bathing suits, and vintage inspired dresses.

I enjoy any type of art and for an individual to be able to create art on a body and use it as a canvas very much intrigues me.

What kind of music do you like?

I like a lot of different music. I would say that I am very eclectic, But I would have to say my top favorite types are Rockabilly, Jazz, The Blues, and Indie.
