Tani, Were you popular in High School? Yes, I was... I was a little trend setter too :o)

What is the first compliment you get? I'm usually complimented on my big eyes. (MV - We knew that answer!!!)

How did you start modeling? It was one of those things where I always wanted to do it, and was told I should try it... and so I did.

What was it like to pose the first time? It actually felt very natural as if I've been doing it for a long time. It was a good experience.

Do you get nervous before your shoots? No, I don't get nervous... I get excited and giddy.

Your most embarrassing Model shoot moment? Hmm, I don't have any embarrassing moments as of yet which is a little shocking since I'm such a goofball. BUT stay tuned, you never know!

What is your favorite type of pose? There are many poses I like, but I must say, I love the types that involve a blowing fan.

What sets you apart from other models? Wow, let's see... I am told that I have a unique look and unique features, SO my answer is, I have unique features.

Who is your favorite model? Gisele Bundchen
What makes a good photographer? Well, I'm a true goofball so I like to have fun. I like working with photographers who really enjoy what they do and have a great time doing it. A great photographer is creative, fun, professional and works together with the model.

What do you do to keep fit? I love physical fitness... I weight train 4-5 days a week and take spin classes about 3 times a week. I also try to eat healthy and allow myself to "cheat" every once in a while. Girl's gotta have her cake!!

Are you enhanced? Nope, these A-cups are ALL mine! LOL

Any current exciting projects you're working on? Presently I am working some shoe shows in NYC.

What has been your most significant accomplishment in the industry so far? Well, as I'm pretty much a newbie, my list isn't very long (lol), but I'd have to say getting the cover of Register Magazine and being asked to do a lingerie catalog.

Ever thought about acting? Oh yes. fo sho. I always secretly felt I could do it and would love the opportunity to. Ahem, any acting agents reading this?? :o)

What are your dreams/goals in life? To make some SERIOUS Benjamins. Heh heh, no seriously... see answer below.

Where will you be in 5 years? Hopefully ALIVE! LOL. I hope to be more advanced in my career as a model and an artist. And hopefully I would have gotten that chance to act. (hint hint to casting agents ) ;)

Do you like to travel? I love to travel. I even like to pack!

What is your favorite place to visit? Definitely a tropical or hot location with a beach (of course I'll need my SPF).

What Makes you feel sexy? I always feel mad sexy right after a long hot sudsy shower.... grrrrr ;)

Has anyone ever tried to hold you back in life?
I wouldn't say PEOPLE tried to hold me back. I think there were situations that kept me back in the past. But now I'm unstoppable so if anyone tries to hold me back, I'll just have to take 'em OUT! heh heh

If you could meet anyone dead or alive, who would it be, and why? That would be my maternal grandparents as they passed away when my Mom was a little girl :o(

What is the best compliment you ever had? Best compliment would be that I am selfless and have a really big heart.

What advice do you have for upcoming models? Always stay true to yourself and your beliefs and never stray from that.

What can fans do to support your career? Fans? Do I have fans? Well, definitely keep supporting me.

Thank you!!

Any final farewell Message for fans?
