Tell us about yourself.

My name is Payton A. I am from a small town in Oklahoma and I am 18 years old. I grew up in a Christian family where I was taught to love everyone and always be kind. I love helping people and I enjoy gymnastics, napping, and hanging with friends. Modeling has always been a dream of mine and I’m so excited to see where it leads me. 

What is your biggest dream?

My biggest dream is to be a positive influence to everyone around me, and be able to give back to my hometown if I ever make it big. 

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

Being your own kind of beautiful means doing what makes you happy, wearing what you think looks good, not copying other’s lifestyles, and having confidence in yourself without listening to people’s opinions. 

Tell us about your modeling experience.

I graduated from John Casablancas Acting and Modeling School where I did photoshoots and I have helped out my local photographers by doing shoots for them. 

What is your dream brand to model for?

Nike, Adidas, GK Elite, Gianni Bini

How would you describe your fashion style?

Classy and chic, but sometimes Casual

How important is self-awareness and confidence to you in your everyday life?

Very important. I feel like a lot of girls lack confidence in today’s society, so I’m always trying to lift anyone up that I can. It’s important to love every detail about yourself even though this world makes it difficult. 

What makes you beautiful/ handsome?

My heart and personality. I have the biggest heart. My best days are when I know I’ve done something to make someone else’s day better. I love seeing people smile!

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

I would remind then that God created them EXACTLY how he wanted them. Everything about them is beautiful/handsome because everyone is wonderful in their own way and they shouldn’t waste their time worrying about the opinions of others.
