Hi, my name is kanisha, preferably go by Shannell. I’m 28 and currently in the army progressing in my academics to become a lawyer.

I think the tv show is great and very inspiring for people around world. Accepting people at natural beauty vs the filters that alter people’s look.

I feel I am a great role model because of my goals and the ability to love myself. Once you know how to accept yourself flaws and all that’s when your natural beauty enlightens and you know your worth. I feel I can be the face of this contest if not win still show to the world that natural beauty goes a long way.
