My Journey

When I started my personal modelling journey in the fashion industry, I quickly realized that I didn’t fit in the measurements of the industry standard. I was always either ‘too big’ or ‘too skinny’ and this had a huge impact on my confidence during that period. When I participated in a tv show where I got let go for not fitting the beauty image, I decided I had enough. These personal experiences and challenges I faced along the way inspired me to share my own story. I spoke to major media platforms on a national and international level about my challenges regarding sizes in modelling and I quickly found out I wasn’t the only one. Many models and young people felt the same pressures and frustrations of trying to fit into a perfect beauty standard – a beauty standard that is often unrealistic and unhealthy. I noticed people had enough and that they were ready for a change. I decided that if change is needed, I will lead that change myself. That is how I started Inbetween Models, a modelling agency that has a global mission of making the fashion industry more diverse and inclusive. Everyone is different and that is why beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, so why just have one perfect beauty standard?
