BELLA: Where are you from originally? Kylie: Well I was born and raised in South Florida. I'm 50% Puerto Rican from my dad, 25% Irish and 25% Cherokee Indian from my mom. I believe I have an awesome mix.
BELLA: Were you more physical or intellectual growing up? Kylie:Intellectual, I love reading books and constantly learning new things. Everyone calls me a big nerd.
BELLA: What do you do for fun? Kylie: I'm always on the go if it's not being the model it's being the makeup artist. But when I get some free time I love spending it with my family and friends. Going to concerts and just enjoying every minute since life is short.
BELLA: What do you do to stay in shape? Kylie: I was born with a great metabolism thank God! But I still try to eat healthy and work out because when I'm much older I still want to maintain a great healthy body!
BELLA What was your first job? Kylie:My first job was when I was 14 years old my cousin worked at this pizza place asked me if I wanted to work with her. At first I was just the hostess but eventually I got to help make the pizzas, it was pretty cool.
BELLA: What's your best feature? Kylie: My best feature would definitely have to be my eyes, I get compliments on them all the time. I have to thank my wonderful mom for that because she has even more gorgeous green eyes then I do!
BELLA: What's your favorite sport? Kylie: My favorite sport believe it or not is Ice-skating. When I was younger I use to go over my grandma's house and just sit there for hours with her watching it and I found it so fascinating. I even tried being a Ice skater when I was little with my neighbor for a while.
BELLA: What is one thing people would be surprised to know about you? Kylie:I'm an extremely giving person! Those who don't know me usually judge an assume I'm stuck up or rude but I'd actually give my shirt off my back to someone who needs it.
BELLA: What is a Bella girl to you? Kylie: A Bella girl is someone who feels confident and beautiful by just being themself. A girl who has goals and won't let anyone bring her down, that she will continue to strive to show everyone her greatness.
BELLA : How do you get yourself energized before a shoot? Kylie: I pump up my music and get ready to rock another great shoot!
BELLA: What makes you different from most models? Kylie: What makes me different from most models is I have been doing this on and off for many years started off in Beauty pageants and International cat shows with my Birman Honey. I have even worked as a talent scout for a modeling agency. I've very rounded in the industry and although many models do this for fame, My goal is to meet awesome contacts and enjoy a career that I love instead of dreading to go to work like many people do.
BELLA: Where do you see yourself in five years? Kylie: In five years if God let's me, I'll be alive and happily married. Hopefully as a known model and makeup artist continuing to strive for future goals!
BELLA: What is you favorite part of modeling so far? Kylie: My favorite part about modeling would be meeting lots of people and having great experiences within this industry. Since I was younger I was the social butterfly in my family so when I meet someone new I get so excited, I get a new friend every time!
