So Elle, where were you born, and how was life growing up?
I was born in Princeton, WV. I grew up in Virginia in the Smith Mountain Lake area. It’s beautiful there and attracts lots of tourists during the summertime.
What nationality are you?
Caucasian
Do you go to college?
I have a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise, Sport, and Health Education with a concentration in Sports Medicine. Long title I know, but it sounds fancy.
I am currently taking a few classes I need for Grad school.
I want to be a physician’s assistant and my first grad school interview is this month! Wish me luck.
How long have you been modelling?
I have been modelling on and off since I was 15.
How did you get your start in modelling?
A friend of a friend story really. My best friend’s parents owned an office next door to a local photog and he inquired about needing models and lighting assistants. They suggested me.
Where have we seen you?
I have been in Rim/Wheel Ads featured in Lowrider, Rides, Donk, XPOZ, and Mighty Men’s Magazines. I model for an agency called Bella Donna Promotions and have done lots of promotional work for them. I have an upcoming calendar project and a magazine cover coming out soon as well. So, be on the lookout!
Do you consider yourself famous?
No, but I think that people who meet me or see my work tend not to forget me.
Do people recognize you when you’re out and about? If so, how do they react to or treat you?
Not in the “celebrity” sense, but in the modelling community I believe that I am making a name for myself.
What do you like best about being a model?
Well, everyone likes the recognition, but I really enjoy being in front of a camera. Modelling is so much harder than you would think. It takes more than a pretty face to come away with amazing photos. It is an art.
What would you be if you weren’t a model?
I have always had a good head on my shoulders when it comes to “what I want to be when I grow up.” My schooling comes first and modelling second, always. I know the value of finishing my education. My goods are only going to stay tight and toned for so many years. (laughs)
What would the average person say about you?
I’m easy to talk to and I’m confident.
What’s one thing about yourself that everyone should know?
I am ambitious beyond all measure. If I showed you my planner for the month, the first thing you would ask me is when do I sleep.
Are you a good dancer?
I can shake my booty as much as the next white girl. I suppose I do like to dance though.
What do guys compliment you most on?
My eyes.
Do you like the nerdy type, MMA fighter guy or the regular Joe?
I really think it’s more of finding that person you connect with. Nerdy-I do like smart men. I need someone that can hold an intelligent conversation with me. Fighter-not so much. I do like a man that can protect a women, but guys who fight are too aggressive for me. Regular Joe – well, if he thinks he’s regular, then he probably isn’t for me. I’m looking for extraordinary.
Are you seeing anyone? Do we stand a chance with you?
Unfortunately, I am happily taken. Sorry. BUT I have a lot of single, HOT model friends. (laughs)
Do you have any secret weaknesses or guilty pleasures?
Ice cream. I am allergic to dairy. So, of course, that makes me want it that much more!! My guilty pleasure…pampering myself, it’s an expensive and high-maintenance habit, but every now and then every girl has to do it.
What’s your biggest turn-on?
Ambition, confidence, and chivalry.
Do you consider yourself more of a “giver” or a “taker”?
I am much more of a “giver” It makes me happy to make my man happy.
What is the most romantic thing a guy has done for you?
I haven’t really had any crazy over the top romance. However, I do have a story regarding the most selfless thing anyone has ever done for me. When my bf and I started dating I was having an issue with knee pain that wasn’t resolving itself. I found out about a non-surgical option with a doctor in Chicago. He took care of all the research, phone calls, stuck me on a plane, and gave me his debit card to get the procedure done. It cost thousands of dollars and I had to go back for several treatments on my knee and he never complained. Hands down, sweetest and most selfless thing anyone has ever done for me.
If you could have any car you wanted, what would it be?
A Koenigsegg Agera R.
Do you have any hidden talents?
I am certified to teach Tai Chi and I am a Certified Personal Trainer. So, my hidden talents involve whipping your ass into shape (laughs) I also really enjoy cooking. I am self-taught and am actually quite good at it.
What would you consider your strongest attributes?
My work ethic is indisputably awesome. I am also very devoted to my studies and to the important people in my life.
If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go and who would you take with you?
I want to go to Egypt. I have always been fascinated with archaeology and I want to see the pyramids. I would take the bf of course.
What do you normally sleep in?
It depends on my mood. Sometimes it’s a slinky nightie and sometimes it’s a comfy tee and panties.
What is your favourite food?
I love all food. To ask me to pick just one is cruel and unusual punishment, but I LOVE white chocolate. It is good stuff.
Who is your favourite comedian?
Tom Lennon
What do you do for fun?
I like to relax and catch up on my favourite TV shows. I am currently hooked on Game of Thrones. If you haven’t watched it, you should. Other than that, I like to read and work out. If I can, I will try to get outdoors and hike or go for a walk instead of hitting the gym.
Do you like video games? If so, what do you play?
I used to play when I was younger, but not anymore.
Are you into sports? Do you have a favourite sports team?
Rugby, Enkopings RK.
What are your dreams and goals?
My goal is to become a medical professional. I want to use my knowledge to teach others the value of being active and living a clean and wholesome lifestyle. So many illnesses and diseases can be prevented and even reversed simply through diet and lifestyle. The ideas behind this notion are so simple, it’s almost criminal and no one realizes it. Everyone just wants a magic pill and that isn’t the answer. On my journey, I would like to continue to model and see where it takes me
