What’s your name and where are you  from? 

My name is Shaquana L. Wise, known as Lucci. I am from a small town/City upstate named Poughkeepsie in New York State. It’s an hour to Manhattan train ride and like 45 minute drive to NYC as well. I have had the honor of living in other areas and states as well like Utah, Atlanta (my second home) and the DMV areas. I made a name for myself in Atlanta and had people stamping me as Lucci since early 2000’s.

Do you love what you do?

I stripped, hustled, and met a few celebrities along that way, as well as knew a lot of people behind the scenes who was coming up and now are famous. I am in the medical field and been since 2017, I became a Nurse Assistant and a Personal Care Aide actively ever since I graduated! I am in school now for Phlebotomy, Medical Office Specialist and EKG, so as you can see I’m pretty advanced in this field and take pleasure in helping people transition. I love what I do and started modeling since I was 18 years old, my viral photoshoot I first posted was the first of many.

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

In 5 years i see myself Owning multiple , businesses, receiving residential and residual income . Hopefully traveling as a phlebotomist, and just being booked and paid for brands and Modeling. I love what I do and have been attracting not chasing it for a long while now;  Modeling and also working made me continue to pay for shoots on my own, outfits and lingerie, accessories, hair , makeup on my own, features on my own, a few music videos on my own, I had a few run in managers that never applied theirselves hard enough and never was really motivating for me, so I managed myself and got myself known just for social media. My first instagram I ever made would be over 10k followers right now if I never got hacked and lost my old account, all of that I did on my own and had organic followers still till this day. One thing I learned I’d rather have the income and businesses because that will always in the long run be more lucrative for my family and my representation.

What do you want to accomplish in life?

What I want to accomplish is to be able to be managed properly, learn new things like making better content and being an overall better person on how I conduct myself around others and work. I want to accomplish working with major brands, NYFW, Billboards all around the world, be managed professionally and promptly, and just be booked and paid . I have had my worse run ins in this business hence why I didn’t go further, I also understood growing up and doing whatever it is you have to do to make it and breakthrough; I realize I could never fully do it all on my own. What I want to accomplish is having a Team that’s dedicated to me and the brand and building it bigger than ourselves. This business is tricky and I don’t want to miss out on opportunity, I just paid my last 50 dollars and don’t even have any more money currently because that’s my thing, Go all in or shut up. I want this as much as the next but I also know my worth in having someone SEE me and see my potential to make us greater.

What do you bring to your industry?

What I bring to the industry is The Realness with a hint of Class, I bring raw talent I can sing,I can dance , I know how to comprehend and listen as well as write and understand.In this industry you usually don’t have to proof nothing but the work ethic and that’s my goal to show I’m Jane of all Trades, I got the full package and always have even without Money.

What do you want to be remembered by?

One day I want to be remembered by my legacy to stay authentic and stay HUNGRY. They will have along hallway leading to my museum with my stories in it for the world to see.
