Life During a Pandemic
What is your coronavirus pandemic routine?
My routine involves Starbucks to power my day. I go every day to the same location, and it has become an enjoyable part of my day, that I even get dressed up cute for. I even get dressed up in heels when going grocery shopping or to Target, when I have to. I have been taking the time to work out as much as possible with a combination of cardio, either outside or running my stairs, resistance bands, and virtual work outs with my trainer. Other than that, I am working on starting my own business and have regular work for that.
What has been the biggest challenge for you since the government lockdown?
The biggest challenge for me is not being able to see my family in North Carolina. My parents are on the older side and my grandmother has bad health, so I don’t have an option but to put their safety first and wait for this pandemic to be over.
What is the first thing on your to do list once the lockdown is completely lifted?
The first thing on my to do list is to travel. I had to cancel a trip that I was taking my mother onto, Iceland, Germany and the United Kingdom. It made me really sad.
What will you remember most about this lockdown?
I will remember this time most as a personal blessing. I decided from day 1 to take it as an opportunity to work on my goals. I even stopped drinking to improve my health and be more focused. Honestly, I do not even miss alcohol.

Tell us about your first modeling job.
My first modeling job was working as a promotional car model at a car show in North Carolina.
Where has been your favorite travel destination?
My favorite travel destination has been St. Barths. It was absolutely beautiful. The food was amazing, the people were so nice, and the hiking was the absolute highlight of everything.
Where is your dream travel location?
I am not sure if I would call this a dream travel location, but I have always yearned to see the pyramids in Egypt.
Describe a funny or awkward moment that happened on a photo shoot.
I was modeling in front of a house in a couture gown as the police showed up and shut the shoot down. As awkward as that was, it was worse when I was shooting with @visualposion in Aspen. We decided to ski and shoot some shots before going into Cloud 9. Needless to say, wearing a bikini top on a ski slope gets a lot of attention.
