I was born in Queens NY a nice quiet suburban area with my family and Shi Tzus, Sam and Gio.  As a woman in her 50s, I have an extensive and enriching career in fashion that started as a model in the 90s when signed with Ford Models NY and Wolf Models in Germany. 

I modelled for national and international brands,  including Ashley Stewart, Lane Bryant and Bloomingdales. I was featured in magazines such as Essence, Belle, Mode, and Figure while dabbling as an extra on various TV shows and movies.

I stopped modeling for a hot minute in the early 2000s when I received my dream gig as a model booker for the Curves division of Red Model Management NY. It was during this time that I started to experiment in the styling world and eventually launched my own styling, fashion consulting, and model development company  called Avanti Consulting in 2005.

In 2010 I became the Fashion Editor of Fire Magazine styling several covers that featured singers such as Omarion, Neyo, as well as late actor Lance Reddick of The Wire. She also became a freelance contributing fashion writer for Fashionledge.com, Style.com, and Examiner.com.

Curvy Chick Confidential was an online blog I created covering fashion, lifestyle, beauty, and events. My days were spent researching the latest fashion trends, beauty products, and local events.

I love to sing, garden, interior decorating and photography and I would love to represent your company!
