See Beauty, Be Beauty


                                                           




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.
