September was the busiest month I've had in a long time! For a homebody like me traveling to South Texas, Wichita and Tulsa was a bit out of my comfort zone, but I met some amazing women and made some divine connections. Blessings to all of you! I wish I could hug your necks again!

On a good day, I average one shot out of every six attempts and walking in heels has never been a graceful endeavor for me, but this modeling assignment was for a good cause-a fundraiser for a mission trip.
