about the author

---

 I'm Laila Elise -  a writer, entrepreneur, and former fashion model/actress who loves adventure and both thinking and existing out of the box. A true digital nomad, I have degrees in business and education, and have traveled extensively, continually learning, discovering and communicating to the world through writing.  I am published in several magazines on a variety of topics including personal relationships, lifestyle, travel, humor, and current affairs. This site is both meant to showcase my commercial writing abilities as well as my personal writing style via the blog.  I am also working (slowly!) on my first novel, a fictional narrative based on real events with regards to my experience in the modeling industry.
