I like modeling for a living. Aside from that, I love sports and basketball. Go Miami Heat! (Laughs)

Describe your personality.

I’m a very outgoing person. I do have my times where I like to be at home with my friends, but I love going out and having a good time with my friends and family.

Do you have any special kinds of hobbies or anything that you like to do for fun?

Hanging out with my friends, I know it sounds juvenile, but it’s true.

What do you like to do at nighttime?

I love dancing, singing and just having fun.

What’s the perfect guy to you?

He would have to be sweet, honest, loyal and faithful. Basically an imaginary man. (Laughs) I’ll find him some day, but right now I haven’t met him yet.

What kind of music do you like?

I love all kinds of music, but I’m really in to R&B, Hip-Hop and Salsa, it’s in my heart, that’s where I’m from.

Tell us a little about Puerto Rico and what it’s like.

Puerto Rico’s beautiful; people are very honest, humble and down to earth. My island is gorgeous; I just got back and can’t wait to go again.

What kind of qualities do you look for in a friend?

My friends are honest and loyal, down to do whatever for you, and I reciprocate.

What is sexy to you?

Sexy is a state of mind. I think anybody can be sexy; it’s all in how you feel about yourself and what you can do to make yourself feel that way.

What kinds of food do you like?

I love Italian food. The most fattening foods are the kinds I like, foods like pizza and lasagna. I would eat pizza every day if I could. I love Latin food, I’m Puerto Rican, so rice, beans, steak, and pork chops.

What kind of bikinis do you like and why is everyone so fascinated with bikinis?

Bikinis are great, they’re comfortable and they show off your body. I actually lived in New York over the summer and noticed the difference in the way people in New York and Miami dress. People in Miami are a lot more, not revealing, but more open and comfortable with their bodies. If I were to dress like I do here in Miami, people in New York would look at me strange and funny.

Tell us about what kind of modeling you’ve done.

I’ve done all sorts of things, but I think the latest thing I did was work for Phat Farm, it was fun and I got to meet Russell Simmons. I worked for Tommy Hilfiger and met Tommy. I’ve also done shows for Armani, Gucci and Chanel in New York.

What is it like to be a model?

Being a model is great, you get to travel and see the World. I’ve met amazing people that I probably wouldn’t have met if I weren’t doing this as a living. I’ve had a lot of fun.

What are you thinking about when you’re posing in front of the camera?

I’m focusing on my work, but I don’t take it as seriously as I should. I’m thinking about what I’m going to eat tonight, what I’m going to do later with friends, bills I have to pay, stuff like that. Modeling is just a job, it’s not my life.

What are some of your goals in life?

My goal is to use the capital that I’ve made in modeling to purchase real estate; which is what I’m actually doing now, purchasing little lands here and there, hopefully I can start buying properties soon. That way when I stop modeling, I won’t have to work for anybody, I can be my own boss.

Do you have any words of wisdom?

Treat others the way that you would like to be treated. Don’t do anything to anybody else that you don’t want done to yourself.
