1. How did you get involved in cover modeling?

I got involved with cover modeling by Gods good grace! Taria Reed actually found me and thought I was a great fit for the industry. She believed in me when I didn’t, and it all just took off from there. I haven’t looked back…

2. Do you enjoy dressing up in different time period costumes or do you prefer contemporary?

I really like dressing up because you have the chance to take on a character in a sense. You can use your personality to get good photos and it gives me good practice in case I ever decide to dabble in acting. You have to imagine yourself being a totally different person each time. Contemporary is amazing, but I like taking on characters.

3. I won’t ask which is your favorite cover, but what types are your favorite to see as a finish product?

I really love seeing the action/adventure covers or the uber sexy ones! The action ones are so much fun and i can hardly ever wait to see what a creative mind is going to do with them, The sexy covers…well, I grew up a tomboy. I was never really girly or had confidence to be looked at as a “sexy” person. Big hair, glasses up until high school, not your model type at all..But when I see these sexy covers it blows me away to see how far I have come and how much confidence I have gained over time. I’m very proud.

4. If you could be on the cover of any author past or present whose cover would you want to be on?

I am a very big fan of Anne Rice….I grew up reading a lot of her books and always wanted to be one of her characters *giggity* I know she doesn’t really use models on her covers, but I would probably lose my mind if it were ever possible. Being a part of this industry has broadened my tastes immensely! There are so many authors, yourself included, who have blown me away with their stories, even when I am not on their covers and I am blessed to be on this path.
