worked for everything my whole life. I wasn’t born rich or
anything; I did chores and depending on what chores I did
I got my allowance. My parents are still farmers; they rent
out their land and all of that, so it’s still very basic.
How many acres was your farm?
My parents have 5,000, but so does my uncle. The
whole entire family area has 10,000 to 12,000 acres with

You must be pretty handy around a farm?
Oh yeah, I can do all of it. I can drive a manual. I learned

because I had to. I actually purchased a SS Green Camaro
in 2013. I also longboard, skateboard and play volleyball.
I was a cheerleader from age 6 to 24 and I stopped when
I graduated from college. Yeah, I’ve done all the sports. I

your taxes or incorporate and pay quarterly. No one likes
to end up with a big tax bill at the end of the year, so save
at least 20 percent of your income.
What were you doing before you became a cam model?
Before I became a cam model I worked at Wells Fargo
from 18 to 20. When I moved out of state after my two-
year college I needed a job where I could work at home
and work as many hours as possible, while still being
