Question
what are some chalanges you go through on a daily bases ?
In reference to work - since I don't currently have an agent, finding work is my job. I freelance now, which is fine - but I would love to be able to delegate the job of an agent or manager off to someone else.
Even when I did have agents, one still needs to check in with them, keep them up to date on what's going on in your life, and make sure you're doing everything you can to be the most marketable talent you can be.
None of that is difficult, it's just time consuming.
Balancing work and my personal life is something that I'm pretty good at, and my husband and brother are also both in the industry as well - so I have a lot of support.
Thank you for asking such an interesting question!

I can answer questions from those looking to get into the fashion or commercial modeling industry. Specifically, the requirements, what is needed, how to find an agent, what they look for, how to avoid scams, the difference between what a commercial model does, and a fashion model, would travel/relocation be required, what is on a comp card and in your portfolio.
Experience
Both my acting and modeling resume/portfolio is available online on my website. I am a member of the Screen Actors Guild, and also have available my actor's demo reel and voice-over demo online. I founded both the Florida-Models.com and Florida-Actors.com websites, which provide free modeling and acting info to the public. I have moved into directing, producing and screenwriting - and have won awards for my writing. I have worked in the industry as both a model and actress in Florida, New York City and Los Angeles until October 2007. I now reside in Europe.
