My first jobs consisted of spokesmodel work at trade shows and being a Bud girl at bars. That was great fun, and great training for my future as a Playmate. We passed out key chains, mingled and took pictures with patrons. It was almost like being on a Playmate promotion! And I really started to get into the LA nightlife. I met so many new people when we went out dancing. I also started working at movie premieres -- for example, at the premiere for Boogie Nights, to honor the hot tub theme of the party, a bunch of other models and I relaxed in a hot tub the entire time. Hard work, huh? Once I got my agent, work began to come to me faster than ever, from Babylon 5 to Beverly Hills 90210 to The New Love Boat to my first experience with a live audience on Jesse. There were also plenty of commercials coming my way. Things were starting to go very well for me.
