What’s your name?

My name is Jennifer Valencia

Where are you from?

I am from Cali, Colombia but I live in Brentwood New York. I moved to New York when I was 3.

Why do you love modeling?

I love modeling because I feel like it is another way to build your confidence and make a person feel like they are on top of the world! Not only can it only help you but I feel like you can also help others with their confidence and help make people feel better about themselves. Another reason I love modeling is because there is so much creativity involved in each project. Each project feels like an adventure because every time it’ll be something different. I feel like people get to show their creativity levels and so many ways with modeling fashion and photography as well. I feel like when I’m modeling I actually feel like I can be myself on a different level and feel really good while doing so. Before I started modeling I didn’t feel like I was even good enough to become a model. As I watch all my progress and everything that I have achieved so far I feel very proud of myself and I’m just glad that I didn’t choose to give up at the end of the day. Modeling really makes me who I am today.

What makes you different as a model?

What makes me different as a model is that I like to model not only as a way to boost my confidence up but to also express creativity. I like to work on different types of concepts and try to make them as different as possible.I try to give them all a unique meaning and look.I like to think big and always go all out. Everytime I go big I just want to go even bigger the next time. I feel like there is always room for improvement and better things. I am also very open to trying new things and seeing different perspectives. I feel like I have a unique persona and I’m always open to seeing different personas as well. I am not afraid to express myself and who I am. I really love art and I feel like modeling in a way is art. As a model my role would be to show off someone art and make it look beyond amazing. I would want to fit into the picture that the creator is trying to create.

What do you bring to the modeling world?

I bring someone that can pull off almost anything and everything. I love to try different variations of concepts, styles, make up, etc. I also bring a lot of creativity and positivity as well. I feel like it’s also important to always be professional and organized. I bring many different talents and skills that could also be used in the modeling industry. Not only do I model, I also do make up nails and hair occasionally. So whenever anyone would need a Mua at a shoot I could always be available as well. And if people ever need a Spanish translator I am also bilingual and speak and Read Spanish fluently. I also do runway modeling as well other than photography and marketing. I am also very good with showing up on time and being prepared at all times.

What do you want to be remembered by?

I want to be remembered by a person that is genuine. Someone that likes to help other people and try new things. Someone that’s really nice to everybody and loves to spend time with other people. I want to be remembered as a role model. Just simply someone that does great things to help others and someone that not only has a great amount of beauty but uses it in a very good way as well.
