This Diva loves modeling so much, she doesn't even consider it a work!

Francine's family moved to Los Angeles, California, from the Philippines when she just five years old. Little did they know they would be in just the right place for Francine’s future career, which would begin 15 years later. In between that time, Francine had quite a childhood, as you will read.

Francine would first attend Catholic school, where the restrictive rules, didn't exactly go over well. Always being the most talkative one in class, Francine couldn't seem to stay out of trouble. Things would only escalate when she attended Hoover High School in Glendale, CA. Francine and her friends ditched class frequently and Francine actually had to sell tickets to graduate! Even that didn't go off without a hitch as Francine bought all the tickets herself, rather than selling them!

At 20 years of age, Francine began her career in modeling. Her first assignment was a calendar shoot featuring women of color. She worked with two other models, whose appearance she was awestruck by. Francine's second calendar was the 1999 Pacific Coast Happas and it would introduce her to the import scene. People got to know Francine at car show events where the calendar was being promoted and Francine got a tremendous response. This encouraged her to continue modeling and she has since carved out a great career in the industry. Now I know what would get a tremendous response from you. Some fabulous photos of Francine!
