About

I am a 16 y/o First Nations proud Gamillaroi woman and want to promote myself and get myself out there and show people what I am all about, so I can hopefully make it very far, as I want to be a world-wide famous Model, and inspire young people and future generations that they can do anything they put their heart too! I have chosen this selection of photos to express my whole personality and tell everyone about me, what fashion I like and styles. I also wanted to showcase my First Nation's Culture and inspire other young people to do the same. To be proud of who they are, and where they came from...and to never be afraid to show ourselves". These images showcase where I am in life and how I feel right now. I am transitioning from a teenager, to being a Young Woman...a proud First Nations Woman. I wanted to showcase the various dimensions of what that means to me. I can be Y2K streetwise, but I am also sophisticated and elegant, sporting, but social and most importantly...I am always my culture and home with my people". My dream is for people to see my images and go..."WOW!" ...That's what I want people to feel. I want them to see the strength in me as well as the fashion. I want young people to feel inspired to reach for their dreams, as I am...of becoming a model...even though it can be scary! I would like to think someone see's my photos and thinks...that is the Model for my line, my styles, my ideas". My dream is to be a successful model, perhaps even the first ever Australian First Nation's 'Victoria's Secret Angel'. How amazing would that be! I love being in front of the camera, fashion and make-up, and enjoy painting Aboriginal Art for my friends, family and school. I recently had my design printed on clothing for an Aboriginal girls' group in Bathurst, that was worn by the Aboriginal Girls Dance Troupe at the NRL Bathurst-Cronulla game. Family is very important to me. I love my nieces and nephews, and my entire family are so proud to see me chase my dream"

Education & Training

I am currently completing my Y 12 leaving certificate at Denison Secondary College Bathurst NSW 2795. My parents and school are extremely supportive of my dream, and willing to be flexible to complement my goal. I would welcome any opportunities to be supported and quided in the industry.
