How did I end up here? I have to ask myself this question and laugh. After all it's not like it was my lifelong desire to become a porn star. Strangely, becoming a porn star wasn't on the agenda, so how the hell did I end up here?

I was an only child, a small town girl, born in Longmont, a little community just outside of Boulder, Colorado. On May 26 I came into the world, a sweet, innocent, pudgy little girl with a tuft of blonde hair. After an altercation with my Dad in my teens I was shipped out to live with my Mother in San Diego. During the end of high school and through part of college I worked for a chain of video stores in the San Diego area where I learned a lot about porn. Since the stores had adult movie rentals I became pretty familiar with the videos, the stars and the companies.

I came into the adult industry via an acquaintance who was a friend of photographer Warren Tang. Warren eventually shot one of my very first magazine layouts. I decided that since I was ever-adventurous I would go to Los Angeles to try one or two movies and see what happened. After about five movies I was getting all kinds of calls for more work so I decided to move my entire life, dog and all, from beautiful Colorado to a lovely (not) one-bedroom cottage (?) on a charming five-lane thoroughfare nestled beneath the power lines in North Hollywood.

Now I live (and often shoot) in my renovated 1927 warehouse loft in downtown LA, I run 5 live webcams out of my home 24/7 so you can take a peek at a porn star in her natural habitat.
