Introduce yourself briefly: I’m not your average teenager who goes the same path as everyone else. I’ve always had that drive to do something different, which happened to be modeling! This past year I’ve gone from hearing about the amazing sights of the world to actually seeing them for my own eyes. Despite the fact that I’m new to the industry; I’m determined to work hard and one day be at the top.
Five words to describe your future: Travel, laughter, friends, family, and craziness. 🙂
What is your definition of happiness? My definition of happiness is waking up everyday with no regrets and being excited for the day to come.
What do you get out of modeling? I could go on for days listing off things I have gotten out of modeling but there is definitely a major one. This would be good social skills. You go into castings that may have the biggest impact on your career with just minutes or even seconds to make the best impression possible. Also modeling is obviously not the type of job where you work with the same people every day. You have to learn to adjust and deal with different tempers, personalities, and much more day to day.
the booker says
Last season Kelsey was exclusive in nyc for Proenza. Her hair and her strong features makes her really outstanding. She’s strong but approachable and isn’t scared to give herself a critical eye to give the best.
