May co-Featured Model: Khaleia Assih
For Model of the Month for May, we had a unique situation. For the first time, we had a three-way tie. Today's feature is on Khaleia Assih. Today (May 19, 2014) is her 12th birthday! Despite being very young, Khaleia is already a very good model.
Khaleia got into modeling due to wanting the creative and expressive outlet. She started by doing natural make-up and light photo shoots which garnered her alot of compliments. Things picked up for Khaleia when Miss Cheri Moore of MSSO offered her a spot in the Crown for Kids Fashion and Tea, which was her first show and led to her doing more photo-shoots.
Being influenced by America's Next Top Model stars like Tyra Banks and clothing models, and having an excellent support system consisting of her family and fans, Khaleia has started to achieve many goals. "My favorite achievements are being able to overcome my fear of being in front of a lot of people. I am confident to be myself," she told me, "My goals are to be able to get signed under an agency because then I can be put out there in the modeling world to further any capability of my career." She is undoubtedly going to achieve those goals.
"The most fun thing I have done as a model is walking in the 2014 Spokane Divino and Canines on the Catwalk Show- Put on by Wendy Jordan of Fifth Elements Talents, " Khaleia elated. Lots of fun opportunities are starting to come her way as she grows into her own as a model and starts to build her legacy. "I want my legacy to be to just be yourself because there is only one of you. Make a difference in the world, " she adds.
