I recently watched the Oscar award winning documentary, “The Cove,” which documents the slaughtering and shipment of beautiful bottle-nose dolphins in what’s referred to as, the cove, in Taiji, Japan. Richard O’Barry, the dolphin trainer for the once popular TV show, Flipper, demonstrates a massive amount of courage in his gripping documentation of the fate… Read the Rest…

2011
Miami’s vegan food truck, Mac’n, is owned and operated by the sweet, Francesca. With an entirely vegan menu, including gluten free options, I bought one of everything that was gluten free on the menu. Between my boyfriend and I, we enjoyed a very cheesy macaroni and cheese, a barbeque sandwich, watermelon and basil salad, fried… Read the Rest…

Nothing excites me more than vegan food, especially when the community comes together to celebrate it. Here are some pictures I took from the DC VegFest on the campus of George Washington University in my beautiful hometown, Washington, DC. This is my new favorite t-shirt.

Firefighter Cookies

Sep
2011
Remembering 9/11, I made these cookies for the local fire department as a thank you for their commitment and service to our community. I have dubbed these little devils, “Firefighter cookies,” not only because of who they’re for, but also because they’re super crispy. Go ahead, laugh at my corny chef-joke. Dip these bad boys… Read the Rest…

2010
I was so excited when I found out about Wilhelmina’s “Curves for Change” initiative! Curves for Change is bringing attention to the modeling industry’s bad reputation for using models that are dangerously thin, and promoting the new push for healthy-sized women in the industry. Truly fantastic! I looked at my schedule to see if I’d… Read the Rest…

I recently had the opportunity to model as a female version of Marty McFly with an amazing Delorean straight out of Back to the Future. The shoot will be used to benefit Parkinson’s disease research, via the Michael J. Fox Foundation. What a perfect match to use the Delorean from Michael’s incredible role as Marty… Read the Rest…

2010
We’ve read it in the papers and heard it on the news. It’s affected the economy in a number of ways. It’s even been used as question material for Miss USA (you can see question on video at 3 min 30 sec): What have we done, folks? As one small person in this enormous planet,… Read the Rest…

Every woman that knows what’s good for her loves a leopard print. And sometimes as women, we just can’t make any sacrifices for that wildly sexy caramel and brown print. For me, comfort immediately took a backseat the moment I laid eyes on my first pair of YSL leopard heels. Check them out (below)! I… Read the Rest…
