Born in the tiny Colorado mountain town of Leadville, Tina spent most of her life in the mountains.. until she decided that she needed something bigger, and moved to Denver. Bigger is what she got, and modeling has taken her to all the major fashion cities of the world... Paris, Milan, Miami, New York City.

Tina started modeling at the age of 10 by showing off ski gear and snow suits for a magazine in Beaver Creek, Colorado, and eventually parlayed all her accumulated experience into a position as a scout, which took her everywhere you can imagine, just to find beautiful women to place before the camera. Quite a far cry from her small-town beginnings.... "Travel is still the biggest part for me," she says, when asked what she loves about modeling. Until recently, Tina managed her own model agency, M3, and was instrumental in hooking us up with several of the models who've been in sugartwist so far (like Neda and Dorota from our first issue)... but she's now concentrating on managing her own career, so we're glad to put her in the spotlight this time... This shoot was done in a north-light studio, and in the simple, beautiful light, Tina shows how simply beautiful she can be. Hair and makeup: Kenneth Seegrist for Blanc the Salon
