When you meet Iris, you’ll think that she’s a very shy, down-to-earth girl. She’s a graphic designer. She’s a nerd. She went to UC Berkeley. Just a mild mannered Asian girl right? Wrong.
In this interview, we got to see her true colors. We talked about being naked, having sex, and how uninhibited she is sexually. Read on for an interesting interview.

Where do you currently live?
West Los Angeles.
What’s one thing you can do in Los Angeles that few people know about?
The Art Walk in Downtown. There’s art and music, it’s a street fair.
What do you do for a living?
I’m a designer. I work in graphics. I do modeling on the side, most recently I was hired to do something for a skin care line. I’m also starting a bikini line tentatively called Lava Kitty.
How did you get the idea for your bikini line, Lava Kitty?
I was always into design. I was into jewelry. I was thinking about opening up a boutique with a co-worker. I made a couple of bikinis that I use for work, and I thought other people would enjoy them.
What do you think is the best and worst parts of your job?
I actually dislike working in graphics. My background is in sculpture. I like things that are tangible vs digital. My sculptures are very private. I incorporate a lot of different lighting. A lot of my sculptures are interiors – which means you have to look inside of it.
What’s one thing that not many people know about you?
I’m a walking contradiction. I have so many different aspects of my life. I’m really girly but I have more tools than any guy. I’m really shy but behind closed doors I’m an exhibitionist.
Also some people don’t know when they see me that I was a huge nerd in High School. I got a 1580 (out of 1600) on my SATs. I graduated from UC Berkeley as an undergrad for economics and art and then Pratt for graduate school.
What are some of your passions in life?
I really love to dance, I like to dance alone – maybe it’s because I have a rhythm that not many other people have. I dance around my house cleaning – and I’m always naked. I’m usually more comfortable naked.
I also really like animals. I relate better to animals than people sometimes. I think it’s because animals don’t have ulterior motives. Sometimes I think it’s because I’m an only child and I don’t relate to other people that well sometimes.
Are you currently single?
Yes, but it’s complicated.
Why would a guy want you as his girlfriend?
I’m very open minded. I’m very loyal. I’m “creative” in bed. I get bored easily so I’m very open to trying things sexually.
How does a guy impress you?
Ambition and confidence, almost to the point of arrogance. I like strong guys – alpha males. Surprisingly, though, I’m not the submissive one in a relationship. I like having control.
What’s your idea of a good first date?
Maybe a threesome or an orgy – just kidding! NOT the movies. Someplace to walk around, a street fair, hiking, someplace to explore.
Do you have some dating advice for guys?
Be real and honest. Trust is hard for me and women in general. I’ve been overly trusting in relationships, but reality has made me slightly jaded. In Los Angeles it’s especially bad – it’s very hard to trust people in LA. A lot of guys have ulterior motives.
