I was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana in 1978. I was my mom's first and only little girl, so I lived a very girly life. I started in pageants at a young age and continued to be active in them until high school. We traveled all over to compete in Alabama and Florida and of course my home state. I won a few titles -- Little Miss Baton Rouge and Little Miss Louisiana. Aside from the pageant stuff, I was really quite normal. We lived in the country, so there was always lots of grass and open space for us to play. After school the neighborhood kids and I would put together awesome "yard ball" teams and play until dark...or until somebody got hurt. I never played any sports in high school because I was so busy with runway modeling and shoots for local TV commercials that I never had time for much else.

I grew up loving to draw, paint, sculpt and do anything else artistic. It all started with coloring books and crayons and just sort of went from there. I continued in art all through high school and even won awards for my work. I hope to one day be able to sit down and start another project and finish it, but without Ms. Roger (my art teacher) motivating me, I may not be able to. I attended Nicholls State University, but I just couldn't stay focused on my studies, so after one semester I took some time off to set myself straight. I was just a few weeks from re-enrolling when I got my big call from Playboy, so I haven't had the time for college lately. But I plan to go back to school as soon as possible.
