Additional info: "I am a Cancer with a Leo cusp. I grew up living with my Mom
and Grandma mostly. I have a younger brother Keith and sister
Renee. I went to South Colonie High School. Then went on to
the local community college Hudson Valley, where I received
my Associates Degree in Arts. I finished up my Bachelors at
the State University at Albany (better known as Suny Albany,
a great party school). While growing up I was always one for
the "Limelight" I started swimming in Aqua Babies at 6
months. From there I went into Gymnastics, to Tap and Ballet,
then on to Baton Twirling, and Rifle Guard. Finally, I ended
up Cheerleading for one year in High School and three years
in College. I've also taught Pop Warner Cheerleaders, which
I'm proud to say that they placed 5th in the Nationals the
year I coached them. I started modeling in High School after
taking a film class and being used as a "subject", and people
started telling me I was photogenic. Then like many other
girls I went on to Barbizon Modeling School to learn how to
be a "little lady". Which I have to say it taught me about
skincare, standing, and walking properly, which can make a
difference for ones appearance in public. Then I decided to
give pageants a try, the first pageant I competed in I didn't
even place, but I did receive Miss Congeniality, that was the
"Empire State Pageant" held by Gillespie Pageants in the
Catskill Region of New York State. Then I went on to the
"Teen World of Beauty" which was held in Lake George, NY. I
was the first runner up. Then on to the Miss New York
Competitions. I never placed or won, but tried two years in a
row, then I waited a year and didn't win. That was the year
my girlfriend Kimberly Pressler won and went on to Miss USA,
she was my roommate. I did finally win the Hawaiian Tropics
Locals and went on to win the Regional Competition in 1998, I
went to the Nationals although I didn't win, I had a great
time and networked my behind off. Also through this time I
was taking acting courses and private coaching. I got into
working out in High School and continue to do so now. Like
most anyone else I go through phases of slacking, but I know
how important it is because it keeps me motivated, healthy,
and in shape. In High School I was voted "Class Flirt"
although I didn't see it, but everyone else did!!!
I'm half Armenian and mostly German on the other side, a
little English and Dutch, I guess that's what gives me an
Exotic Flair that makes people wonder what my Nationality is.
That's the question that I'm asked most frequently, besides
"is my eye color real?" Yes, my eyes are green. I've had a
lot of people come in and out of my life, through them all
I've learned, grown, and seen things that I might not of
otherwise seen or experienced. I've traveled to many places
and plan to keep on traveling. I love to experience Crazy
Things in my life, the latest adventures being, Skydiving,
and White Water Rafting..."
Yours, Kelly
