I am blessed to say I do have a strong support team and several agents. Several years back my brother had a dream to be a child model/actor. He had his first interview with World of Kids and I went along. I was about a year old. Immediately when they saw me , I was signed along with my brother. I have been represented by them for several years now, landing multiple international print jobs, from toys, to clothing, and even being store front and billboards for Spirit Halloween. Read more>>
