Some advice I would give to someone just starting out at modeling would be to shoot your shot! If you miss try again! There will be someone who appreciates you and what you have to offer!!
What are some obstacles you have overcome in you life and how have they changed you?
I have overcome many obstacles in my life. I was put under the guardianship of my grandparents at an early age. During school I had a hard time finding friends and people who I could just talk to. When entering college my grandparents divorced and really took a toll on me. What I did realize though is that only you have control of your future. And there’s no time to sit around and be sad about what did not happen. I learned to appreciate what I have and what I can do for myself to improve.
What makes you beautiful?
What makes me beautiful is the love I carry for others. I see the good in every person and care so deeply about the people around me. I believe my care and respect for others shows on the outside.
What would you say to someone who is struggling with their confidence?
If someone my age is struggling with confidence I would tell them that they are beautiful just the way you are. You cannot change yourself so you must learn to love the body you are in!
