Where were you born, where did you grow up and where do you live now? I am a native of Las Vegas, I feel like there are not many of us! I have lived here my whole life and still reside in Las Vegas.

What’s your favourite colour? My favourite colour is white.

What type of music do you enjoy most and who’s your favourite artist? When it comes to music, I consider myself an eclectic. I can listen to anything from 70s soft rock, to techno. I love having a full spectrum of music to listen to. I have several favourite music artists; Maynard James Keenan, Kristoffer Rygg and Pete Loeffler.

Favourite movie of all time and favourite actor? My favourite movie of all time would have to be Annihilation, I found it to be very obscure. My favourite actor would be Christian Bale.

Do you prefer the beach or the pool? When it comes to my preference of either the pool or the beach, I choose the beach because it offers an array of destinations to immerse yourself in.

Read the book or watch the movie? I prefer reading books because I can envision my own version of a storyline.

If you could be an animal, what would you be and why? If I could be an animal, I would be a peacock! Their colours and personality are amazing; a lot like me.

What is your favourite body part on you and on him? My favourite body part on me are my lips! On a man, my favourite would his arms.

What attracts you the most in a man? A slightly elusive, confident man attracts me the most. I love men who take the lead and are not afraid to be spontaneous!

Biggest turn-on? My biggest turn on is when a man can be the alpha, yet kind and understanding.

Biggest turnoff? My biggest turnoff is bad hygiene. Looks have never been a big thing for me.

Describe your perfect date. The perfect date to me would be someone who can hold a stimulating, deep conversation.

Describe yourself using 3 adjectives. I am the nicest, quirkiest, most impulsive girl you will ever meet.

Any pet peeves? My pet peeves are being late and a dirty home.

Where is your favourite vacation destination and why? My favourite vacation destination is Cambodia. The people are so sweet and it is so beautiful.

Congrats on your Playboy Australia Playmate Cover! What does this mean to you? Being in Playboy was always a dream of mine and I am honoured to have my dream come true and leave a footnote in history for being in the magazine.

Where do you see yourself ten years from now? In ten years, I would love to open a cosmetic business to make women feel beautiful! They all deserve to feel beautiful.
