See Beauty, Be Beauty
Starting
introductions are always difficult for me, especially when introducing myself; I’ll
try and not over think this one. I was born in LA, and then was raised in
Hawaii; which consisted of small hippie schools, lots of sand and sun. I
couldn’t ask for a better childhood honestly, not everyone can say they lived
in Hawaii, swam with dolphins, and camped on the beach as a pass time. However,
once I started getting into my teens I could see the restrictions the island
had on me; it became suffocating. Nevertheless, the lack of things to do made
me think out of the box. It made me find ways to keep entertained, rather than
waiting for entertainment to come my way. So I drew a lot, made home movies
with my friends and was a fish in between. After childhood passed me by, and high school was over, I
moved to another Island on my own. Oahu was so refreshing! I learned how to
live on my own, got signed with a modeling agency, and loved life.
Oahu, Hawaii
After a year
passed, I decided I still wanted more, even though Oahu was so much different
from the Island I used to know, it was still just an island. So I moved here, to Oxnard California! I
moved in with my aunt, started working for her daycare business, driving to LA
for modeling jobs every weekend, and started a whole new life. I met a handsome Mexican man I now live
with, and still from time to time I feel like I am in an entirely different
universe then I was before. I am currently obtaining my Associates in Film and
Television, and in my extra time I Belly dance, fire spin, and paint. I also
was hired for a second Halloween season, as an actor, at Universal Studios for
their Halloween Horror Nights event; you should all check it out.

Hawaii will always
be a huge piece of me, however California is definitely starting to be
home. I can’t wait to travel,
camp, and road trip now that I’m here. It’s an amazing feeling to know
that I’m not entirely surrounded by water, and I could drive to another state
if I wanted! My dream is to belly/fire dance professionally, as well as work my
way up to the director’s chair. I want to be a successful and powerful
director, preferably for a TV series. I blame this on my grandfather, he was a
Director in his time, and did projects for companies such as Disney. I just want to create emotions and
inspire people; make people feel something that makes a spark in them. I have so many
inspirations in my life. Now I want to make inspirations for others.
I want to see
beauty, and be beauty.
