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

Hi, My name is Ella! I am from New York, I currently am a 16 year old high school junior. This year I have developed my own eco-friendly fashion line, which is made entirely of recycled materials!

Tell us about your modeling experience.

I have been working hard as a model for about a year! I participated in several local photoshoots and just recently competed for Miss New York Teen!

What is your biggest dream?

My biggest dream is to become a successful model and fashion designer. I plan to pursue fashion throughout college!

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

Being your own beautiful means being kind on the inside. When you build others up your inner beauty shines through!

How would you describe your fashion style?

My fashion style is very colorful and sometimes a little crazy! I love wearing bright colors and bold patterns! A fun fact about me is that I make most of my clothes myself with my sewing machine!

Who or what inspires you?

My mom Inspires me, I want to be just like her because she is confident and strong! I get my love of fashion from her. We have very similar styles, we even have a couple matching outfits!

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

Be yourself, there’s no one better! Don’t give up and stay confident!

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

I suffered from severe anxiety and depression. This experience made me grow stronger. I want to help others to overcome obstacles that are similar to this and show them that these hard times are just temporary!

What makes you beautiful/ handsome?

What makes me beautiful is my passion for protecting the earth and all of it’s creatures. I could talk about this topic for hours!

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

Everyone is unique in their own way! We are all beautiful just the way we are, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise!
