About

Born in Trinidad and Tobago, I bring a rich cultural background and a unique perspective to my role as the President and CEO of STRUT Models, a boutique agency that is 100% black owned and female driven and renowned for its innovation and excellence in the fashion industry. With roots in modeling myself, I have experienced firsthand the intricacies of the industry, fueling my passion for its evolution and growth. 

Over the past 22 years, including 11 years as an entrepreneur, I have led STRUT Models with a dedication to reshaping beauty standards and have steered the agency towards new heights, fostering meaningful relationships with clients and models alike. At STRUT Models, we are committed to redefining standards of beauty and representation, championing diversity and inclusivity in every aspect of our work.

Our team's collective vision is to inspire confidence and empower individuals to embrace their uniqueness. It is and honor to contribute to an industry that continues to inspire and challenge me. I am deeply committed to shaping the future of fashion through collaboration and meaningful connections with fellow professionals. I look forward to forging new partnerships and making a lasting impact together.
