About Me

To me, beauty comes in all shapes and sizes. I've always thought about plus-size modeling, but finally decided to give it a try in August 2011 because of the recent acceptance of full-figured models in the industry, as well as opportunities presented to women of size in the Bay Area.

I am a brand ambassador for the plus size website 8 Plus Divas, which includes representing the company at various events and contributing fashion blogs to their website. I've also started my own fashion blog that chronicles my journey into the plus modeling world.

My goals: Even though the industry has come a long way, barriers still need to be broken when it comes to plus-size modeling. I would like to see more women in magazines and on the runway that truly look like me (larger than a size 10).

I'm hoping my background in journalism and public relations help me meet others in the fashion industry that I can connect with for potential modeling jobs, advice, inspiration and networking.
