About Me
African born professional freelance petite Model, trained Actress, and Photographer, based in Frankfurt, Germany. With over 8 years modelling experience. Former Miss Global Nigeria 2016 and top 20 Miss Global International 2016.
Modelling to me is not just a job or career path, it is a path of who I am. It is in my DNA, which means there is a piece of me in every pose or image captured. Every assignment I am booked for I approached as a collaboration and give 110% into all I do. Together with my acting skill, years of modelling experience, interest in photography… you get a confident, diverse, versatile and experienced chameleon. With a positive outlook in life and a strong professional work ethic, great attention to details (some people would call me a perfectionist), creative thinking and a natural problem solver - you would feel like you have a creative director on set with you. I love what I do and the camera loves me back, be it in front of the camera or behind the camera and you can tell from my work portfolio.
As a model, I accept bookings from both amateur photographers and professionals. Whatever your project is, whether personal portfolio building project or commercial assignment. I am also available as a model for model/photography workshops. So do feel free to get in touch.
BIOGRAPHY
Born and grew up in Nigeria, moved to London in 2008 to study Law at London South Bank University. While watching season 13 of America’s Next Top Model, I got inspired and decided I wanted to try modelling. Being petite at 164cm height, dark skin and 23 years old at that time. No modelling agency would sign me up (except of course for the scam agencies). I was told “due to my generic skin tone and height, it would be impossible to get bookings”. I took that as a challenge and decided to go freelance.
Kicked off my career as a full time Model in 2013 after being fired from my main income job as a receptionist. Toured the UK working with amateur and professional photographers, walked the runway for fashion brands like Gerald Daren, John Lewis (during the Vogue Fashion Night Out), Sheguang Hu at Amway Fashion Show during Fashion week. 2 years into freelance modelling, I got signed to commercial agencies - DK Models, and Catwalk Model Agency. Worked on commercial assignments for the British Police Federation, and PC / Curry’s World.
Got selected as Miss Global Nigeria 2016 to represent my birth country at the Miss Global International Beauty Pageant 2016, held in Manila, Philippines. Came up top 20 out of 43 international beauty queens.
Decided I wanted to expand my skills more in the Arts and got accepted in 2016 to train as an actress in Theatre Performance at the prestigious Paris acting school, Cours Florent Paris. There I trained for 2 years, and got my acting Diploma.
Continuing as a freelance model, I have since toured and worked with some of the most incredibly talented Artists, Designers, Makeup Artists, Photographers and creative teams all over Europe. Had my photos published in both local and international newspapers and magazines like Black Beauty Mag UK, Pride Magazine UK, The Sun, Camera Craft Magazine, DOCMA, Fine Art Printer, Pictures Magazine…….just to mention a few. With photos exhibited in galleries internationally and won prestigious international awards credited to respective photographers I’ve had the pleasure of working with.
Met my soulmate and fell in love in Paris, moved to Germany and got married in 2018. Then came the pandemic in 2020 and I decided to take a break from modelling. Late 2021 I became a mum to the most wonderful human on the planet. 4 years on since my break from modelling, I’m ready to get back in front of the camera. Fuelled with the fiery desire to create again…. I say…. LET’S GET CREATIVE!
