Who am I?

I’m 5’9, I love to model since I already have experience. I’m American Nigerian. I’m the Vice President of 3 Organizations at my university and I’m also a peer mentor. I travel a lot, the places I’ve been to overseas are, Africa, Germany, Iceland, Amsterdam, London, and the Bahamas. I’ve done a big scholarly research project about discrimination in the fashion industry, so I actually know the history behind modeling and I want to use my knowledge of that one day to help make a change.


What do I think about A New Kind of Beautiful TV series Presented by The Fashion Hero TV series?

My dream is to become a supermodel and ambassador for diversity and equality within the fashion industry. I love traveling and Ive also studied abroad in Germany, which was a life changing experience.


Why would I be a great role model for this generation and inspire people as the new face of A New Kind Of Beautiful TV series Presented by The Fashion Hero?

Since I’ve done scholarly research on discrimination in the modeling industry, that is a social problem that I would like to use as my platform. I would love to give speeches on how we can decrease that problem or prevent it. I would also like for models to have a discussion panel about it and maybe one day I could get Naomi Campbell, or Tyra Banks to support me implementing these changes because they are two supermodels who broke barriers in the industry for colored models to have more opportunities.
