I was born in Dallas, Texas, to a fairly wealthy family. I have a sister, 18, and a brother, 26. My mother and father got a divorce within 3 yrs of my being born. I lived with my mother a majority of the time with my younger sister. When my mother developed an extremeley severe drug addiction problem (while trying to deal with my brother's alcohol addiction), we lost everything and my sister and I moved in with my father, and my mother moved to Pennsylvania. Over the course of the 5 yrs i lived with him, he remarried and seperated again. After having medical and personal problems, i moved to Pittsburgh, PA, half way through my senior year of high school to start over. Through the 6 yrs my mother was addicted to drugs, and the 5 yrs that my father's house was turned upside down with his new wife and her daughter, i maintained my grades, remained active in school and extracurricular activities, such as art and academic competitions for computer use, as an escape form my home life. I never focused a lot on myself growing up, but mainly on my younger sister, as she had no one else to look after her. Now that I am on my own, i wanted to persue something that i never had the opportunity to try, due to life's other demands. I feel that i owe it to myself to to give this all i've got. MY whole life people told me that i should model or try to become a model, but when you are raising your sister on your own, living from apartment to apartment, car to car, with your mom, it is difficult to think about those kinds of things.
I have never starred in a movie, commercial, or advertisement, but i have the skills for it. I took a drama class for about 6 yrs as a younger child, and have completed speech/oral communications courses through my local school.
I love art, especially drawing and painting. I take a great interest in public relations, and helping others. (I work for the office of the Mayor of Pittsburgh, logging complaints, and resolving issues.
I do not except to become an A-List movie star overnight, but as of now, i am aiming for possibly printed ads, small commericials, spokespersons, extras in movies, etc. Of course, i would LOVE to get a role in a film or an advertisement in a magazine or commercial.
