"I was working in a beeper and pager store on Buford Highway when I as discovered by Nelson Jones at the age of 17. I was for two years straight the #1 Hispanic TOPOP model for the agency and got the most paying jobs; including being a Corona Beer promotional girl and I was booked several times for Radio Mex an Atlanta radio station, among many other jobs.

Over the 4 years I modeled with TOPOP, Nelson became a great friend as well as my mentor. I grew to learn the business and later did both marketing and accounting for th e business. Listening to him and working as a professional model I gained confidence and met a lot of exciting people . All TOPOP models got along great, we were all like family back in the nineties.

I can remember the time that 8 of us met very early at 6AM to the TOPOP house, as we did a few times for big photo shoots. Nelson personally made us all breakfast and everyone just got to know one another and by the time we started our photo shoot at Hartsfield International Airport,(Rap Pages) we were laughing and enjoying ourselves.

Even though we had a 12 hour day everyone had a great attitude. I am glad I got to work with him, he is an amazing photographer and always professional."
