Tell us about yourself (where are you from, age, whatever you want to add)

My name is Victoria Gut. I am seventeen years old. I am from the state of New Jersey. I grew up in a culture revolving household with Polish being my first language. Active living has always been a large part of my life consisting of many sports. Due to injuries I stopped and picked up weight lifting which focuses on strength and aesthetics. I am on my way to becoming a personal trainer for those who wish a healthier lifestyle and boost in confidence. 

Tell us about your modeling experience. 

I have in-studio and on location experience. I've worked alongside a creative team.

What is your biggest dream?

My biggest dream is knowing that I offered and did something for this world and the people in it and people will remember my name for my accomplishments. 

What does it mean to be your own kind of beautiful?

Being your “own kind of beautiful” means that every single person is different in their own way, physically and emotionally. No matter how different you are from someone else, you are unique and don't have to be a copy and paste of society's expectations because different is better.

How would you describe your fashion style?

My fashion style consists of different aesthetics. Streetwear, athletic wear, casual, classy, tending, etc. I like to think that I am not limited to my style and always open to try new things.

Who or what inspires you?

My mother inspires me because she came to this country with nothing in her pockets and she grew from that to an independent woman with her own business. 

What is your advice to someone who is just getting started with modeling?

My advice would be to never change your body for anyone but yourself. If any industry asks for you to “lose weight” or “gain weight” then they are not worth seeing your beauty.

Describe some obstacles you have overcome in your life and how that has changed or shaped you.

Due to my mother always working to provide a roof over our heads and my father not being in the picture, I raised myself and my brother on my own. This shaped me into an independent woman caring for those around me teaching me to not be dependent on others. 

What makes you beautiful/handsome?

Personally I think something that makes me beautiful is my birthmark on my left leg called “port wine stain”. I have been made fun of my whole life for it but at the end of the day I realized it makes me unique and beautiful in my own way.

What would you say to another girl/guy your age who is struggling with their confidence?

From someone who has struggled a lot with confidence my advice would be to stop stressing about the things you can't change about yourself and embrace it and be the best version of yourself consistently until it becomes part of your daily routine.
