Sarah Wilkinson's profession before illustration was modeling, an example of this is in (writer) and Chris Ring's (artist) comic The Perfect Victim (2004), she became the official model for the main character Amanda Baker for the photo cover (*Note there currently is no variant cover picture available on comicvine).
