My whole life I thought sharks were the coolest thing, so I thought,"I'm going to go to Florida and find a way to work with sharks." I moved to Florida when I was 20 to attend Florida Atlantic University and study environmental science. In graduate school I studied geosciences, which includes remote sensing and GIS, basically using data to figure out where things are and why. I worked a lot with water resources, as well as invasive reptiles and crocodilians.
I always encourage women to go into these fields, especially tech. You're going deal with having mostly male classmates and other things like that, but at the end of the day, it's definitely worth it and a cool thing to accomplish. I actually started modeling because I got into free diving and shark diving after I moved to Florida. There's a little niche for girls that can free dive well to model with sharks or underwater, so I started meeting up with photographers for some product shoots and things like that.
I think working in science is more fulfilling because it's more respected. As a model, when you're talking to somebody and they find out you're a scientist it's almost like the respect for you changes. When people think you just model, it almost feels like they think less of you, whereas once they know you have a respected career it's like something flips in them and they think more highly of you.
