I was an obnoxious kid – moody, pale and stick-thin. I looked like a boy and never had a boyfriend. Boys used to pick on me. I wasn’t popular and was crap at sports. In fact I was a terrible truant! However, I did concentrate in lessons such as English and art – I surprisingly ended up with nine GCSE’s, five of which were A and A*. I also managed to earn myself two A levels. But after that I jumped from job to job. I hate authority and got bored easily. That’s why I love modelling so much. I do something different every time. There is no time to get bored.

Previous ‘career’ moves have been receptionist, credit controller, telephone sales, sales team supervisor, insurance sales, insurance claim handler, recruitment consultant, asbestos removal sales etc etc. I always quite enjoyed sales. I think that’s because I love a good blag!

I’m now a self-employed model. But when I’m not taking my clothes off, my old boss, Terry, lets me come in and work for my old company, Universal, selling voice and data equipment. It’s quite an involved job and you have to speak to some really interesting people. If I weren’t modelling I would have liked to retire there. They have been very kind and supportive of my career. Who knows, when my tits sag to my knees I may go back there and work full-time!
