What made you decide to model for Penthouse?
Penthouse is just such a classic thing, a huge part of history in terms of women’s sexuality, and in terms of the industry I’m a part of. I also just love to model, so how could I turn it down?
What motivates you to work hard?
My ex-boyfriend who passed away last year. I was in a really confusing place in my life when we were together, and he always told me if I want something, I have to get up and take it. I was a very passive person most of my life, and him passing away has really changed my life forever. I feel like everything I do, all the work I put in, is kind of dedicated to him. He was an amazing artist and musician, and the most hardworking person I ever met. There was hardly any time in the day that he wasn’t working, wasn’t creating. He motivates and inspires me every day. I love and miss you Nusi.
What are your biggest turn-ons and turn-offs?
My biggest turn-on is subtle dominance, like guiding someone through a crowd, putting your hand on their waist to pull them closer, etc.. … My biggest turn-off is someone being loud, abrasive, and rude. I like someone who is kind and gentle and matches my energy.
What is the most exciting place you’ve ever had sex?
Angeles National Forest
When you are about to be photographed in the nude, how do you mentally prepare?
I don’t really feel that I need to “prepare” because being naked doesn’t bother me. I generally only work with people I know & feel comfortable around anyway, so it feels very natural & fun. It isn’t sexual for me. I think a woman’s body is the most beautiful thing in the world, so I consider being photographed naked is very artful and beautiful.
How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?
I usually get ready in like an hour, but I’m not a morning person, so I’m usually getting ready at like 1pm.
What’s the most daring thing you’ve ever done?
Flew to San Francisco for a day to hook up with someone.
What is your favorite thing about your hometown?
You can get a little of everything in LA. … It’s a big city, but still close to the beach, to the forest, to the desert. There’s also a collection of people from all around the world, so you can get all types of food, and meet all types of people.
What are some jobs you have held in the past?
I worked at a pet store, which was my favorite job ever. I was a barista, I also used to sell Pokemon cards/merch, I was a traveling medical IT consultant for a little while too.
Favorite way to get a workout?
I don’t really work out at all so … probably sex? hahaha
Favorite way to relax?
Taking a bath and then taking a really long nap

What is the sexiest quality a person can possess?
Emotional intelligence. Someone who understands their own feelings, is comfortable talking about them, and is willing to try and understand other people as well.
Who is your hero and why?
My biggest hero recently is Kazumi. I feel lucky to be able to call her a friend. She is so inspiring!! She’s an Asian sex worker who is doing HUGE things and empowering so many women in doing so. She is paving the way for girls like me, she is creating space for us in places where people never thought we could go. She travels the world, she walked in NYFW, she is loud and proud and 100% authentically herself and is so successful because of it. She is showing the world that sex work is real work. She always says “Why can’t sluts change the world?” I love that so so much.
