Modeling isn't boring.

Doing something new and challenging. It can be anything from starting a business to playing a sport. Seeing a great concert, looking at extraordinary art, or being in nature. More than anything, it's my son's smile and love that makes me light up!

In order for me to parent well I have to empathize and stay open with my son.

If all else fails, a few deep breaths.

If I hadn't become a model I thought of doing many things. I wanted to be an archaeologist at one point, but I was a little kid. I wanted to be a social worker.

In order for me to parent well I have to empathize and stay open with my son. I am also vulnerable when it comes to trying new things, when I don't feel like I completely know what I am doing. Lack of control.

I definitely think that being a model makes it more difficult to be taken seriously. And I understand. I don't take it seriously sometimes.
