Nine fine models, ten treasured days and one incredible luxury location. Yes, join us as we take you on the latest Destination MAXIM tour, thanks to the lavish Triple “O” Six hotel, to the south coast of Sri Lanka…
Tell us a bit about yourself.
I started dancing at the age of five and haven’t stopped. My first professional gig was cheerleading for the Parramatta Eels NRL team. I then went to Japan to perform in an Elvis review show and from there I’ve performed all over Asia and Europe in elaborate casino shows and cruise ships worldwide. I’ve also danced the French Can-can in the Moulin Rouge in Paris, performed in the Guns N’ Roses residency show and as a Jubilee showgirl in Las Vegas, been an assistant to many magicians, choreographed for the Motor Show in Detroit and also been a pole instructor at Pole Fitness Studio Vegas. In 2018 I was runner-up in the MAXIM’s Finest competition and I’ve since been published in various magazines.
What would people be most surprised to know about you?
I try to surf in every country I visit! It brings me back to earth and centres my soul.
When do you feel sexy?
Anytime I am performing onstage or on shoots. I feel sexy being dressed up and wearing amazing costumes, lingerie or bikinis and super-high, thin stiletto heels. Also, when I’m at my fittest the confidence shines and it’s a positive influence on others.
What was the highlight of your Destination MAXIM trip?
Other than working with the creative team, definitely the safari tour at YALA national park. I had the opportunity to see leopards, elephants, crocodiles… roaming free!
Tell us something new happening in your life right now.
After my MAXIM shoot in Sri Lanka, I surprised my father in Australia! I just turned up on his doorstep. Therefore, I’m currently spending time with him, family and close friends.
