Mini Biography
I was born on September 7, 1973 in Houston, Texas, the daughter of a Syrian/Lebanese father and a mother also of mixed decent (Cherokee Indian). Soon after I was born, my family and I moved to Waco, Texas, where I took dance lessons, including tap, ballet and many other forms. While attending High School, however, I was very interested in tennis. I even considered going pro, and making tennis my life.I was also active in cheerleading, volleyball, and the student council treasurer. You could say I kept very busy. lol. As a senior, I did some modeling in New York, and even got an agent. After graduating, I went to Tokyo, Japan, Milan, Hong Kong, and various other places to model. After coming back to America, I did some Ford Modeling for a while, and also worked with Elite Agency. I always had a passion for acting, so I began to take classes.I guess you guys know the rest.
