After three years and a shelter in place order, my cousin finally got around to editing a video we filmed together just for fun. It was my first time in NYC. I scored a direct booking for a brand called Real Techniques. They booked me as local, so technically I had to pretend I was... Continue Reading →
The 9-Month Journey
It was May 2018. With our lease up in June and our flight out approaching the 22nd of May, we spent most of our nights at my childhood home, slowly moving out of our place in Oak Park and moving into the only home I knew. But also the home that didn't feel like home... Continue Reading →
The Hubs and I Split (But, it’s not what you think)
Yep. I'm in Hong Kong to try out this market for modeling and he's in Bali, eating, praying, loving. More so eating than praying. We decided to go our separate ways for this part of the trip.

Editorial – Shuba Magazine Vol. 4 Issue 2
I'm welcoming 2018 with a new editorial that published in Shuba Magazine. It's been a week since the magazine came out, so it's only fair to share the journey. It was my second time shooting with The O.X. Project (Ethan), but this time in studio. It's nice shooting on location, but sometimes a girl just... Continue Reading →
Editorial – Modern Lady Magazine
My first job in Thailand was a direct booking just 2 days after my arrival and I was so happy that it was an editorial for a Chinese magazine. I was able to practice my Mandarin a bit and the photographer helped me get in touch with some other agencies abroad, one in HK of... Continue Reading →
