    QUOTES:

    INTERESTING FUN INSIGHTS / FACTS

    * Her memory on a Commercial booking: "One of my first Commercial booking was for "Close Up" Toothpaste. The theme of the commercial was 6 couples kissing and dancing happily all together at one sweep... I have to 'kiss' this Asian actor that I was paired up with. He actually put his tongue inside my mouth on the first take and I threaten to bite it off! He later apologized and told me it's a habit of his... I think we must have kissed way over 50 times because our call time (Start work) was 5:00 AM and we didn't wrapped (Stop work) until 9:00 PM.

    * Most embarrassing audition: "I auditioned for a bit role as the 'Cashier' working in a Chinese dry cleaner store on a film that was directed by Woody Allen. I remembered walking in to that 'Dark' auditioning room. I couldn't see where Mr. Allen was seated. There was only 3 lines with in that scene and I did my part but no one laughed ... Nervously, I thank them for the opportunity. Then I ran to the first door in front of me and walked in to a closet! I came out of the closet and I heard this strange 'Giggle' out of no where from the back of the room. He (Woody Allen) says -- 'Now that's funny!' "

    * At age 7 she modeled for "Kodak Films."

    * Featured as the beautiful brunette hair model for Pantene Shampoo ads.

    * Caught "Lice" on her hair while working on a film project in the Philippines.

    * She was actually caught in a real "Hurricane" rain storm on broad a huge cargo ship in the Pacific Ocean while working on a film project in Asia.

    * Worked as a dog walker, perfume model, and monkeysitter (Yes, monkey) all in one day --while trying to break into acting.

    * During High School, her Illustration (Pen & Ink) sketch "Repeating" was exhibited at the New York Transit Museum.
