Modeling for Kids & Teens- Baby Models, Child Models

To warn you now before you begin reading. This is not professionally done.

Really I don't have much of a biography. As I sit here looking and thinking of what to write I find myself laughing at a lot of the things that have happened in my life. My bio would actually make me sound to be more of an experienced actress/model then what I truly am.

I haven't ever gotten any documentation stating that I am capable of anything, but I have put forth the effort to at least try.

I've been through mediocre classes that mean little in the big leagues but a lot to me, classes that taught me different things.

My whole career as an actress/model all started around the time I was 11, and in the 6th grade. That was when I read Romeo and Juliet. I wanted so badly to start my career then, I didn't want to be Juliet in the schools production, and I actually wanted to be Juliet's mother or the director. Big ego I had, a big mouth too. I got to be the director because I was the loudest person, and the most firmly with the ground rules. It was a great experience for me, the best I ever had. Though it was only a school play, I cannot actually use that in a true application for employment to be an actress/model, or even a director or stage manager. But it is an experience I am proud of having.

For 3 years, off and on I was in and out of schools and my home. Desperately in my heart seeking a way to become what I so badly dreamed of.

By the time I was 14, my life wasn't where I wanted it and I regret the things that lead me to where it went. But I am also thankful for it, because if I didn't make the mistakes I did at that time I would never have been encouraged to go to, "The Kravits Center of Performing Arts" for a summer program they had yearly for young child and pre-teens. I was originally denied to go, but the state of Florida threatened the program directors with a court order to accept me. What a life, the only way to get into things was to be ordered to. I am glad that I was ordered and so were they. Because there I learned how to watch and comprehend choreography, I learned music and music theatre, I was even trained during that summer for theatre itself. Unfortunately the day that I was going to receive my certificate of completion something in my life changed and I was unable to do my final performance, a performance in which I worked hard on, for the certificate of completion.

As I started into high school, the only class I ever really cared about was my theatre class and math class. I hated everything else, and most the time skipped the other classes and just hung out in my theatre and math class. I was special; my teachers in those two classes adored me. Anyway, my tenure during high school wasn't as long as I hoped it would have been. But while I was there my theatre teacher kept questioning me on why I didn't sign up for her advance classes, because I had more then enough experience then needed for the junior classes I was in. Soon after asking she found out why, I dread doing paper work. At least writing it by hand. Anyway, for the mid term exam that we had in my theatre class, we were paired up into groups of 5, and had to put on a play. We had to do all the work entailed to make a production go on. My teammates weren't all that experienced so they made me the director, stage manager and producer of the play, yippee I thought. Gave me one heck of an ego boost. Not only did I have to do all that but also I had to actually portray a role in the play. I got the fun role; I got to be the wizard. The day we were to put on the production we came up with, one of my teammates got cold feet. So I took the initiative and asked her to just be the props coordinator. Which she did perfectly, but due to her cold feet we were going to lose a major scene in the play. So to keep that from happening, I actually had to adorn two costumes at once and improvise. Successfully the outcome of my improvising got us an A+. After the class my teacher turned and gave me extra credit for my extreme efforts and hard work. I actually have to say that was the most fun thing I've ever done in my life. I like having a lot to do, and I like being counted on. Since then I've strived for perfection.

Not to discredit my high school experience, but during my high school tenure, I spent a lot of the Saturday nights working at a nearby movie theatre working in the most famous and yet idiotic show called, "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." How embarrassing it is to admit I actually played in that, but I did. Not the actual movie, but the performed ones that people put on for fun. I got to play Columbia, who was originally played by Little Neil. I worked opposite of several great performers that mimicked the show greatly. They trained me in mimicking the part I was to play. And truth be told, the only reason I got the part I did in the show is because at the time my hair was short and red. Which made me look a lot like Little Neil did in that movie. There again points to the fact that I can portray or come off as a look-a-like of someone. Anyway, because I spent nearly 6 years being on the cast for the Rocky Horror Picture Show that is where I learned everything I know now. I learned to work with props, stage managing, mimicking, acting, dancing, and costume/make-up design.

After those tenures of things I took a break from everything to learn other things. For nearly 4 years now I have been doing odd things. I am not sure if anyone has ever heard of Dungeons and Dragons the role-playing game, or Vampire the Masquerade, or even White Wolf. Those are all role-playing games that can be either done on a table with dice or in live action role-playing. Back to what I was saying. For 4 years now, I have been doing just that. Role Playing, I spend currently a lot of my time right now online experimenting with role-playing a various amount of characters. I like to test myself on the ability at hand to be mean or nice at a whim, and since I am technically not considered an actress it is the only way I can keep learning skills without actually having to dish out mass amounts of cash. Did I mention I am not rich? That is only my last name? Feel free to laugh, I figure by the time you get here you’ll be sick of hearing about me, so adding something funny would keep you interested. :)

All right this falls in-between my Role-playing tenure and my Rocky Horror Picture Show ordeal, I'd put it there but alas it just wouldn't seem right. Anyway, when I was 18 years old I went to start schooling at 'National Academy of Professional Arts.' Ran by Wayne Rodemski (spelling maybe wrong, it's been a while). I was capable of paying for the first three months of classes there, but found myself unable to pay anymore classes. Wayne understood my passion for the performing arts and made a deal with me. I was to work for him as his assistant stage manager and that was to pay for my tuition for the classes. Unfortunately, it was a bad deal I should have gotten in writing. Because he turned around and told me he wanted me to pay for classes I wasn't even taking anymore, for I was busy working on three different plays he and his stage manager were in the process of putting on. Enough with the bad and back to the actual reality, during the time I spent working there, I learned how to do sound, lighting, stage design/building and props. While working there doing all of that, for one of the other plays that was going to be shown I was promoted to the Stage Manager, no longer the assistant. And the reason I was promoted was because the producer and director liked my style of doing things compared to the schools Stage manager. But alas, I got tired of getting into arguments with Wayne over my having to pay him for classes I wasn't even taking anymore, so I quit.

Now a little over a year after that, I decided to see if I could become a model so I went to a try out for Barbazon Modeling/Acting Agency. I nearly had a heart attack when I was accepted, the vice president of recruiting new models was the person that called me and told me she wanted me in the agency. She even offered to pay my first two months tuition, as long as I could cover the last two months and just pay her back after I got my first job. Oh how my heart soared hearing that, the only problem was. My boyfriend at the time decided he wanted to be abusive and greedy. So I told her that I was unable to go out of the respects of my boyfriend asking me not to. How sad, I lost a great chance in my life over a man. But, I am making up for my loses. Man or not, I am going to be what I set out to be when I was 11 years old.

Okay, now to the most recent of events in my life.... None. Since I have returned to Florida becoming apart of the Star Search Casting, is my most recent event.

Just to fill you in now, I skipped a lot of my history in this supposed biography because a lot of it isn't something I am sure people really want to hear about. I've had a hard life, done a lot of things that I am both proud and not proud of, but no matter how hard of a life I have had I know that I have a dream and I will make my dream come true.

I was told by many of my teachers, "It's a dog eat dog world out there in the Acting/Modeling aspect, be sure it's something you really want."

And I am sure it's something I want, and I know I will make it. I have more determination in me then anyone could ever imagine.
