After her first photoshoot, she began to become bombarded with e-mails inquiring to shoot from photographers both in Chicago, Illinois and in California. She was signed with One Source Talent Agency in Chicago at age 15, but soon after realized that they were a modeling scam aimed at young, aspiring teens naive to the industry. After gaining experience and moving back to Los Angeles, she was signed by Otto modeling agency at age 16 in Newport Beach, California and worked various hair-shows and photo shoots. She appeared on a spread for Christian Audigier's daughter's clothing line named Crystal Rock in RUNWAY Magazine. She has been featured in music videos such as "Don't Hate" by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, " Too much Too Soon" by V Sevani from NLT (band), and a Strobelikes film.
