Born in Copenhagen, Denmark to a Danish mother and West African father, both of whom were doctors. Her career soon started off at age 1 1/2 as a model for Danish fashion magazine called Femina, in which she graced 3 covers before the age of 2.
By age 6 she was put in a school near Interlaken, Switzerland where she quickly picked up a second language; Swiss and taught herself a third; English by watching BBC.
By age 10, she found herself living in frigid Point Barrow, Alaska among the Inuit Eskimos, and slowly but surely picked up their native language of Inupiaq while attending school in 70 below temperatures.
After graduation, at 19 she left her high paying job and bought a one way ticket to Santa Cruz, California-because she had seen it once on some guy's t-shirt while on holiday in Hawaii- to fully pursue her modeling and music career. She was signed to the first agency she went into.
Her first big break in L.A. came when she was requested by Arsenio Hall to be in an episode for his earlier show in the 90's. She was then asked back by him to co-star in another little episode, and a third. From there she was featured in "In Living Color", "The Fresh Prince of BelAir", "Martin", "Jamie Foxx Show" and several other TV shows. Her cameos caught the attention of Director Eric Meza who put her in "House Party 3" as a priestess in the opening scene of the movie. From there the word of this exotic looking Danish sensation soon hit Hollywood and she was being featured in movie after movie due to her infectious bubbly personality and dedicated work ethics.
