As a teenager, Corliss was scouted and booked by local modeling agencies who were intrigued by her beautiful face, stunning attributes and slender body.

The time she invested into each of the lives she touched; and the pure, unconditional love and wisdom she poured into others; to guide them, mold them, and give them strength showed her utter selflessness.
