"I’ve been part of Kairo for two years now, and it’s truly been one of the best experiences of my life. During this time, I’ve discovered so much about myself, especially what it means to navigate the world as a Black woman in this industry. I’ve learned how to walk into any room with confidence and speak passionately about the things I care about. Modeling has taught me not just proper etiquette for the industry, but also how to carry myself with grace as a woman.
One thing I’ve realized is that modeling isn’t as easy as it might seem—it takes real skill and technique, and that’s something I’ve grown to appreciate deeply. Looking back, my growth over these two years is incredible; the difference between where I started and where I am now is unbelievable. I never expected the training and even the homework that goes into this craft, but it’s shown me the true art and dedication behind modeling.
Through this journey, I’ve become more confident, brave, intelligent, and open-minded. I’m so thankful for Kairo because it’s helped me grow not just as a model, but as a person too. Having a manager who genuinely cares about your growth and success has been a blessing. Knowing there’s someone in your corner, ready to guide and support you, makes all the difference. At Kairo, you truly feel the value of integrity, and it’s given me a sense of security and purpose that I’ll always cherish."
