Tell us about yourself (where are you from, age, whatever you want to add)
My name is Noelle, I am 19 years old and from Fayetteville Arkansas. I am currently a student at the University of Arkansas majoring in Communications with a minor in International Business
Tell us about your modeling experience.
Most of my modeling experience has been in Arkansas. I have goals to start working outside of Arkansas and begin to build my own brand
What is your biggest dream?
Right now I would say my biggest dream would be to walk in a show for Alexander Wang during NYFW.
What does it mean to be your own kind of beautiful?
To learn how to be patient yet resilient. To always follow your instincts and to remember that comfort should scare you, be true to yourself while pushing yourself to be the best you can.
How would you describe your fashion style?
I would describe my style as edgy and chic. One of my favorite designers is Vivienne Westwood. I feel that she has shaped a lot of my style today
Who or what inspires you?
The idea that there is no such thing as a golden road to success. I think as individuals we are always “leveling up”. I want to continue to push myself to be the best that I can be.
What is your advice to someone who is just getting started with modeling?
You will encounter a thousand “no’s”, or “maybe next times” but it only takes one “yes”. Don't give up if it is something you're passionate about.
Describe some obstacles you have overcome in your life and how that has changed or shaped you.
Growing up I was constantly moving around. I had spent time in the West Indies living on the island of Dominica, I spent a few months in Miami, 3 years in Michigan and 10 years in Minnesota. This was difficult for me, but it made me a better person. I met so many people who helped shape me into the person I am today.
What makes you beautiful/handsome?
Beauty comes from within. You can be a gorgeous person on the outside however if your personality doesn't match then the beauty is lacking. I ask myself “what does it mean to be beautiful?” I think of someone who is willing to help others and to radiate a sense of kindness
What would you say to another girl/guy your age who is struggling with their confidence?
To dig deep inside yourself and to remember that everyone is struggling with something. You are not alone, and time for self love is necessary. Don't compare yourself to others because you're going to grow into the best version of you, it doesn't come overnight.
