Nikita Rokita

Sure! I was born and raised in Chicago, IL. My entire life, I’ve always had this driven and determined spirit within me.

Nikita can you tell our Playboy readers more about yourself?

Most people would call me a go-getter. I believe you have to be willing to take risks in order to get to places that most people have not yet been before. Being this risk taking, motivated chick I am, becoming an entrepreneur came very natural for me — and at a very young age! My first very successful business took off when I was just 12 years old, coding for MySpace. I learned so much about myself, and about the foundation of who I wanted to be, very early on in life. Entrepreneurship, to me, has always been about going in my own direction, creating something, making a change, and leaving a positive impact in the world. And because I’ve always been so driven, I graduated from high school an entire year early just so I could get a head start on my college career. So, I moved to Chicago, IL at 17, where I graduated with my degree in psychology. Once I graduated college, before I knew it, I was on a one-way flight to LA, just me and my cat, and a whole lot of unknown possibilities to come. Never considered getting into the restaurant industry, yet, here I am! Never thought I would be a model, yet.... here I am! And I completely love it. I always trust in myself. I know whatever choice that I make will always work out for me. And, so far, it always has.

Tell us what it was like doing your Playboy shoot with that beautiful cat?
