| ElusiveMedia: You seem to enjoy being a model, what got you started? Do you see yourself doing this for the long term? |
| Kristy: I wanted to do a photoshoot with my boyfriend, Eric's car while he was on deployment. I contacted a friend and found a local photographer, set it up, did the shoot, and here I am. 🙂 I would love to continue modeling for as long as I can. |
| EM: So did modeling come naturally to you? |
| Kristy: I guess you could say that. I just have fun and be myself at the shoot. I'm pretty comfortable in front of the camera. |
| EM: What is the best part about being a model besides cameras snapping at you nonstop? |
| Kristy: It was definitely a confidence booster for me. It's nice getting compliments all the time. 🙂 |
| EM: Do you see yourself making a career of modeling? |
| Kristy: Hmm..I don't know about that. I love doing it and all, but it's really hard to find the time to dedicate to it right now. I have a full time job and really like working in accounting. If I had the time I would love to though.We'll play it by ear and hopefully it all works out! |
| EM: Outside of modeling, do you have any other career aspirations? |
| Kristy: I love what I do. I love working with military families. I'm kind of a nerd when it comes to numbers and math so accounting fits me perfectly. 🙂 |
| EM: What is the most awkward moment you've encountered in modeling? |
| Kristy: I don't know if I've really encountered anything that awkward yet. The closest to awkward I guess was at the shoot w/ Eric's car. It was freezing cold and I was half naked by a warehouse doing the shoot and some old lady drove up and gave me and the photographer a "shame on you" look and pointed at us to leave. haha! |
| EM: Best moment? |
| Kristy: Getting my invitation to Hot August Nights at the Playboy Mansion. 🙂 |
| EM: On a typical weekend, where can we find you or what are you doing when you're not modeling? |
| Kristy: On the weekends I'm usually with Eric at car meets and/or shows, working w/ a couple promo companies, or just hanging out with friends. |
| EM: What do you have a weakness for? |
| Kristy: Ben & Jerry's Americone Dream ice cream…HANDS DOWN! haha |
| EM: What message do you have to aspiring models trying to start out in the industry? |
| Kristy: Don't do anything you are not comfortable with. If you're not comfortable with it, it will show in the picture. Be yourself and have fun. |
| EM: Do you drive the IS much? |
| Kristy: I drive it as much as Eric will let me!! I'm not sure how often that will be once the turbo install is complete. haha |
| EM: What is your dream car? |
| Kristy: Silver or Black Infiniti G35 coupe |

| Top or bottom? Bottom. I love being taken control of. |
| What do you wear to sleep? My birthday suit |
| Best place you ever made_______? In a limo after leaving a club. |
| Tell us an interesting fact about yourself. I was valedictorian of my graduating class…there were only 20 people in the class, but whatever. 🙂 |

Pride Performances’ Grand Opening

Website: http://www.pride-performance.com/
"Pride performance was formed by a group of friends and enthusiasts who share the love for racing and building cars in general. Pride-Performance is modeled around what we have all dreamed about for years on the East Coast, a place for fellow racers and car builders alike to hang out, a walk in store-front to order parts, having access and the ability to speak with a staff member in order to get advice on what parts to purchase or in what route he/she should be taking in building their car.
Our mission here at Pride-Performance is very simple:
To create a tight-knit community that has the same desire and passion for the cars and the industry as we do. Our goal is to set a new standard in the automotive aftermarket industry by building high quality cars without lacking any customer service. It is now all to common to establish a relationship with a tuning shop just to have them treat you like crap after you’ve spent all your money, and that’s just us being real about it." – Pride Performance
