I'm not sure at one point I was thinking about joining the navy so maybe I would of been in the service) RTFOTO: Where do you see yourself in 10 years? (I don't really like to look to far ahead into the future, I'd rather make short term goals that way I can at least keep myself a little more grounded so that my head won't get caught up in the clouds hahaha. But I can tell you this I def see my self living life and enjoying it. As for a short term goal in modeling hmm >probably one of my major goals would be to walk down the catwalk in NYC during fashion week I think that would be awesome!

(getting up on time in the morning and not being tired still) RTFOTO: What embarrassing moment have you had in your career? "I was trying to change under a towel that was wrapped around me at a shoot I was doing at the beach when my towel accidentally came undone and I was butt naked I heard someone whistle and when I looked up it was some kids grandma hahaha she went as far as giving two thumbs up along with that whistle." hahaha) RTFOTO: What would you say is the most difficult part of your job?
