What inspired you to become a model?
I think it all started with my grandmother. She showed me some of her glamour photos when she was in her teens. My grandma used to dress me up as Madonna and other costumes when I was like 5 years old. She’ll tell me how to pose and take pictures of me. Ever since then I’m always in front of the camera striking a pose! My mom would always say with a deep sigh, “Oh, I love myself”. That’s how it all began… =)

Who do you look up to?
If I had to pick one person it would be my mother! She’s a single mom. She has worked so hard her whole life just to make sure we’re always well fed and clothed! On top of that, she managed to support our relatives in the Philippines.

What’s your favorite sports team? Go Lakers!!!!!!!

What is the last movie you saw, and what do you think of the movie?
The last movie I saw was Iron Man. This movie sure lived up to its expectations!
It was very fast at getting into the main plot, but not too fast that it had no storyline.
It definitely had enough action and a sexy iron suit! =)

What are some of your favorite brands?
I like Juicy Couture, Betsy Johnson, Dior, Prada and many more…But honestly, it’s not about the brand…I like to buy things that appeal to me. I also LOVE to find deals and cheap things!

What is the last job you’ve had?
I was a product development coordinator for a jewelry company back in the east coast.

If YOUNGSTARZ.ORG gave you one million dollars right now, what would you do with it?
I would pay off my car and other bills, get a house, take care of my family, invest in income properties, and build my very own charity website.

If you could have any car, what would it be?
It would be the Bugatti Veyron!!!It’s the most expensive, most powerful, and fastest car in the world. What more can I ask?

Who have you worked with and how have they affected your work?
My old boss and a very good friend, Joe Moses! I learned that it’s all about the knowledge and perseverance. Magic in life occurs when we put action behind thoughts and feeling and believing in ourselves.

What do you know about streetball?
Streetball is a form of basketball mostly played in a park, beach basketball courts…on the streets…
When I was little, in the Philippines, my brother, uncles and neighbors would form a basketball league… I used to watch them play street ball till midnight. It was a lot of fun. It’s a good way for young people to keep out of trouble too.
