My name is Joey Volquartsen and I am from Stanton, Iowa. I am an actor, singer, dancer, bioqueen, and Instagram enthusiast.

I think the Fashion Hero Series is an amazing concept. The standards set out by the fashion industry are dangerous and being able to subvert them is an important cause.

As the new face of Fashion Hero I could show people that anything is possible despite being "plus sized." There is so much stigma in the entertainment and fashion industries against being a plus sized person and I would like to be someone who could break that. I've been told all my life that I will never be successful because I am not the right "type" of person. Let's show people they are wrong.
