| "Hi my name is Jenelle Elson. I was born in Olympia,WA. Currently I live in
Seattle with my two cats Sheba and Simone. I am the youngest of 3 siblings.
When I was little I used to be a ""tomboy”. I would catch turtles out of our 2-acre lake and paint my name on their shells with fingernail polish and then let them go. Of course this was so I could identify them and claim them as mine later! I was always so adventurous!
Lucky for the turtles, I grew up. (Ha!) I started get bored with the turtles and became more interested with the fashion industry when I reached sixteen. Anything that dealt with the ""world of fashion"" I wanted to
learn about or experience! Modeling, took me by surprise. It was a pleasant surprise, but definitely a surprise.
When I was in my freshman year of college, I happened to be interning in a local boutique. I was working at the front register on a busy weekend, when I was discovered by a talent agent who happened to be shopping there. We talked a short while he gave me his card. I called two days later and set up an appointment for the following week. We met and they signed me with their agency and I started to shoot with a few local, very reputable photographers. I started to get a lot of commercial work. Since then things have just taken off. Lucky for me I love to travel. I do a lot of that now! Modeling has taken me to some very amazing places so I really don't mind all the flying. It's very exciting when I get to go to exotic places. My perfect shoot would be on the sandy beaches of Tahiti, or Fiji. I wouldn't be picky! *winks*
Some of my favorite things to go do are dancing; go to the beach here and the lake whenever I go up north. Many fans know I have a green thumb and I have a special love for gardening. But what many people don't know this but I like to sew clothes and design. As I said, ""Fashion is a passion"". I also love to exercise regularly by lifting weights and running 2 to 3 miles a day. I also practice my yoga almost everyday. It's something that helps me relax and get rid of unwanted tension and stress. I confess I am a health ""nut”. I just like to eat healthy as much as possible. When I was 16 was attracted to the vegetarian way of life. I tried it...and REALLY liked it, so it stuck.
I'm single right now, and I'm not actually looking for ""Mr. Right"" at this present moment. But you never know. *smiles* Things always have a funny way of happening when you're not looking for them. If I had to ""define my perfect man"" ,it would be something like this...(and I know it's cliché) but a great sense of humor is seriously the sexiest thing in a man! I like people who can laugh at themselves, and who are easy-going and can make me laugh. I'm drawn to down-to-earth kinds of people. I'm not partial to metro-sexual guys, I don't like cocky guys, crazy frat-boys, or overly romantic guys either. Most of all I don't like disrespectful guys. But come to think of it, who does! Right?
At this point in my life I have been working on modeling career and I have been very focused. All with the support of family and friends! My life has been just amazing and has been moving so fast at times it is almost surreal. I couldn't be happier or more blessed than I am right now! My fans are really super and that is something that motivates me daily. Thank you so much for all the great posts and comments guys!! |
