With a rather rough atmosphere at school and parents insistence on taking them to their parties, she had a brush with adulthood at very young age only. One of the reasons for her maturing up so fast was the treatment by her parents’ friends to them as equals and not just kids.

By the time she reached her sweet sixteen stage she was already well informed and capable in handling herself around the Hollywood party circle. It was during one of these parties only that she crossed paths Jeff Dunas, a genuine high-class photographer with real connections who got her first assignment with Elite Modeling Agency.

After finishing her high school in 1990, she turned her heels towards Japan with a fellow model to fasten the reins of her modeling career. This point was followed by five successful years of travelling as an established model across fashion cities like Milan, Paris and Morocco. Incidentally it was the time she entered into a five long year relationship up with video director Carlo de la Torre.
