When I used to model, the job description is 'shut up and pose.' There are people today who would really like me to go back to that old job description and 'just shut up and pose.

Jesus was nothing like I thought - He wasn't condemning. He was loving and leading.

It's been an extraordinary journey. I have learned so much along the way. I entered the modeling industry as a business person already. I always knew I belonged on the other side of the camera.

Modeling was another job like some of the other ones I had. Working as a cashier, I delivered newspapers, I worked in a retirement home feeding elderly people. . . so I never stopped and thought about, boy, I'm a successful model.

In business it's about people. It's about relationships.

I've learned so many things and a lot of things I've learned the hard way. I look at failure as education in that respect I'm very well educated.

I won't give up my day job of design.
