From Scout to Star: A Model’s Journey in the World of Modeling

How did your modeling career begin? I was first scouted at the age of 15 while shopping with my mother in Lyon, but I initially did not sign with a modeling agency. At 18, after finishing high school, I met my agent and began traveling the world and working as a full-time model.

As a young girl, I had many dreams: from architecture and interior design to medicine and law. Looking back, I’m glad I chose modeling, because nothing else would have allowed me to grow personally so quickly.

My first modeling job was an economics shoot for Oysho in Barcelona. What I love most about modeling is the chance to constantly learn about myself through travel, meeting new people, and working in inspiring places. As a model, you grow not only professionally but also personally, often faster than expected.

I admire role models like Valeria Lipovetsky, whose social media platforms promote self-love and a healthy lifestyle. My dream shoot would definitely be a film campaign, similar to a perfume campaign, as I really love filming and acting.

The best advice I’ve ever received is: listen to yourself. Fitness and healthy eating are essential to me – I train 3–5 times a week and make sure to give my body the nutrients it needs to thrive.

When I’m not modeling, I spend my time at the gym, having lunch with friends, reading or studying in cafés, or shopping and cooking. This balance helps me be the best version of myself – both as a person and as a model.

Whether you’re considering starting as a model or are already in contact with modeling agencies, it’s crucial to know yourself, take advantage of the opportunities in modeling, and find the right agency to support your career. Models, modeling agencies, and the vast field of modeling offer countless opportunities for growth, creativity, and personal development.
