What got you interested in the modeling industry?
It's a funny story; before I turned a month old, my parents got my baby photos taken and the company that provided the service asked for their permission to use them for their catalog. Several years later, I realized I loved getting my picture taken.

Is there anything about the modeling profession that scares you?

I think my eyes and lips are my strongest features.
How do you take care of your body? Complexion?

Marilyn Monroe. 
Would you ever do nudes?
I'm not really sure. It's been thought of out of curiosity.
What, if anything, could persuade you to do nudes?
As long as I'd be okay/comfortable with it and not have someone try to push me to do it. I'd have to feel ready in my own right.
What would your family think of this choice?
I don't think my family would be too happy about it.
What is the best beauty secret you know of that you utilize?
Hm, the best beauty secret I know of is rubbing ice on your face if you have blemishes or putting toothpaste on pimples. Sounds weird, but works wonders!
