Tell us about yourself.
Im from District of Columbia but moved to Virginia. Im 19 years old and very committed to everything that I do. I'm a hard worker and can take direction very well.
I started modeling when I was 11 years old. There was an organization that my mother put me in called Talent 4 Kids. We did thing like fashion shows but with a twist. You would see dancers, actors, singers etc. performing in the fashion shows. I then went on to doing pageantry. But i didn't enjoy the way they wanted the girls to look. I then started dance and piano for awhile. In 2012 I joined a modeling organization called Models Inc. I was there until 2016. They created different types of fashion shows like runway but some would also be for entertainment purposes. I also started joining my school's modeling team and we would put on shows for the school.
What is your biggest dream?
My biggest dream is to become an international supermodel. To travel the world and see what the world can bring me.
What does it mean to be your own kind of beautiful?
To be my own kind of beautiful means that I'm staying true to myself and knowing that it's not about what's on the outside, but whats on the inside is the most important.
How would you describe your fashion style?
My fashion style is strange in a good way. I wear whatever pops in my head that day. Theres no particular style that i have. I can go from sporty to girl to vintage too modern.
Who or what inspires you.
I inspire myself. I never looked for a role model or someone who was inspiration. I know that i can make the impossible happen.

Do you have any special talents?

Describe some obstacles you have overcome in your life and how that has changed or shaped you.
Some obstacles I have faced was my parents deaths. I lost all confidence in myself and gave up hope. I had to realize that I can be somebody and I am worthy of doing anything I put my mind too. I also suffer from depression so it's my job to remain positive no matter what.
What makes you beautiful?
What makes me beautiful is my personality. I never compared myself to anyone and I never will. I will always remain Ariana Nicole.
What would you say to another girl your age who is struggling with their confidence?
I would say to them stop listening to the others around the people who are telling you what u should or should not look like. You have to find what makes u smile/happy. Not what the next person is doing in their lives.
