Do the leg work. Educate yourself in the industry. Practice. Network. Network. Network. Like any passion, to succeed you must put 100% into that success. With the dawn of social media came the opportunity to make anyone and nearly anything accessible to you. Use that to your advantage. Take care of your health, work out, and eat right. Be thick skinned. Be prepared for rejection. Keep supporters around you, they are your biggest motivators.

If I had to give advice to someone who is just starting modeling, I would tell them to trust the process. It is such a hard industry to get into and you will hear no more often than you will hear yes, but you can not let that discourage you. Stay strong and have confidence in yourself, and most importantly never give up.

- Ever since I can remember, I have always yearned to be in front of the camera. I remember walking around the mall in complete awe of all the models being shown in the stores or on the billboards and magazines. It would be my DREAM to one day achieve what the models I’d fan girl over have. To some day seeing myself as the girl I’d dream about becoming would be the biggest dream come true.

  In this age of growing comparison and changing one's self for society, being your own kind of beautiful means embracing every aspect of yourself and promoting self-acceptance for one's audience. As a teenager myself, I see the pressure on young girls to be perfect, and I hope that my unwavering confidence and resilience despite industry standards helps to encourage others.

I would say surround yourself with loving and supportive people. The people you surround yourself with

makes all the difference in your confidence. If you surround yourself with people who constantly

criticize you it’s going to translate into your mindset and it goes the same for if you surround

yourself with people who support you.

Well, I'm not sure what makes me beautiful. But what I find beautiful is people being kind, caring and open to all things life has to offer. Treating others with kindness and respect - that is beautiful to me.

My best advice to an aspiring model is to be yourself and do not give up. The modeling industry is full of rejection. But do not ever forget, rejection is redirection. It is easy to try and give up, but it takes motivation, determination and drive to keep going when it gets difficult.

For advice for anyone who is starting modeling is to be yourself and don’t take yourself so seriously, If you can be yourself, that’s half the work right there! Casting directors want someone who stands out and someone who can be hardworking and easy to work with. If you can have that’s most important, i agree that there is a time and a place but being able to enjoy yourself and wonderful experiences is worth while.

Being your own kind of beautiful means authentically showcasing who you truly are. It's about embracing your unique qualities, quirks, and individuality without conforming to external expectations. It's the freedom to express yourself genuinely and confidently, recognizing that your true beauty lies in the authenticity of your personality and the way you carry yourself. This concept encourages self-acceptance and empowers you to celebrate the distinct features that make you shine, fostering a sense of inner confidence and radiance that goes beyond societal standards.

My biggest dream is to be a role model for young girls and women. I’d love to be able to empower them, and help them to see that we’re not defined by our circumstances or the world. I want my work to reflect that the possibilities are endless for whatever you wish to pursue in life. We live in a world that constantly wants to silence women, whether it be through our voice, how we choose to dress, or what values we have, but I want to be a part of the change and amplify our voices.

Starting to get into modeling can be very overwhelming, especially if you have no guidance. My advice would be to learn as much information as you possibly can, and start with your basic portfolio needs. Social media is much bigger than it used to be, so reach out to others. We have to work together in life! We’ve all been at the bottom, so teach others.

I believe that it is important to honor God’s image of you. He made each of us as individuals, so why would you want to be just like someone else? I work hard to stand confident in my own skin by taking good care of my body and my mind. I think it is important to be your true self and not let society’s version of beautiful negatively alter how you view yourself. Do what makes YOU feel beautiful!

Confidence is something that is not developed overnight. I am still on a journey to find full confidence for myself, and that is a daily lesson. However, it is important to recognize that you are a masterpiece created by God, and he made you as a person just the way you are. I would recommend examining your habits first, and seeing if there is something little that you can do daily or even weekly to make yourself feel more beautiful or confident. This can be as little as meal prepping healthy snacks, buying a new eyeshadow, or taking a long "everything" shower. These little things can go a long way, and consistency is key! You are truly unique, and developing yourself will make you confident, as you recognize how beautiful you are!
