I have been a model all my life. I love the work I do; it's shaped the way I look at things and my perspective of people in the fashion industry. If you plan to become a model, make sure you have a team of people to support you as the industry can be very rough and hard to you. Rejection and "no" will be a part of your life. If I had to do this over, I would still do what I do. I have so much fun working on and off the runway. It should be known about modeling that it is not easy to become a model; there are strict industry regulations such as most models MUST be over 5'9". Not many people are or even near 5'9", so it's pretty tough. All in all, I am glad with my decision to become a model.
The word "salary" comes from salarium, or "salt money" and was used in ancient Rome to describe the wages paid to Roman legionnaires who were compensated in salt.
