MY STORY

 

 

Since winning the first season of America’s Next Top Model in 2003, I built a career in modeling, reality TV, movie cameos & live event hosting, becoming a beloved figure in the geek world. In 2015, I left the spotlight behind, and with my husband Matthew, swapped the hustle of Los Angeles for the serene mountains of Arizona. Craving even greater solitude, in 2018 we eventually found our forever home in the breathtaking wild of Northwest Montana’s Crown of the Continent.

​

Today, I engage with fans and friends through my online Avon business and social media, sharing beauty tips, life reflections, and my thoughts on aging naturally and womanhood. I’ve embraced new passions—cooking and baking from scratch, hiking, and savoring the simplicity of nature. Far from the glamorous red carpets and relentless pursuit of relevancy, this quieter life nourishes my soul, trading runways for rugged trails. I’m exactly where I was always meant to be.
