Who am I?

Hi everyone! My name is Simón and I'm a designer, photographer and on and off model. I'm also looking for a place in the entertainment industry as an actor, as it is my dream to one day star in the movies and shows I love. I joined this to give myself a second chance. A while ago I was scouted through Instagram by a scout from a famous international models agency, and I thought it was going to be my break through!! I checked every box except height, and they wouldn't sign me because of an inch and a half. The experience left me with a challenge though, to find another way to get where I wanna go, and to prove to myself and others that we don't need those strict beauty standards to be authentically beautiful.


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

My dream is to be able to do as many different things as I can! I want to become an actor, and maybe a musician too! I like many art forms, and I'd like to have a chance to experience working in as many of them as I can.


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?

I'm very driven by my ideals, and by respect for every lifeform. I would like the world to become a place where everyone feels accepted and free, where animals are protected by us and nature is respected as our home. I also advocate for mental health and think that it's very important to acknowledge feelings and everyday struggles. I have experience with anxiety, depression and imposter's syndrome, as many people related to arts have, and I think that talking it out and addressing this issues are first steps to debunk many myths. I've always felt like a little bit of an outcast, and I've learnt to take that as an advantage. I want to express that freely, (I tend to do that with my wardrobe choices) and I wish for everyone else to have the courage to do that too. If I could inspire people to be bold, beautiful and weird it would be the best!
