I’m Karlly. I graduated from Brown University with a degree in Computer Science.
Modeling had been a dream of mine since I was young, but at 5’6, I held myself back for years because I thought I was too short for the industry. I found the courage to launch my modeling career upon graduating university, and I moved to New York and modeled while working in tech. Since quitting my 9 – 5, I have worked as a model in New York, Los Angeles, and Cape Town. Clients I have booked include Apple, L’Oreal, Cerave, Heinz, and Adidas.
I created this blog to serve as a resource I didn’t have when starting out in the industry. I am sharing all of the bits of knowledge I’ve gained from talking to countless models, agents, and casting directors from around the world.
Outside of modeling, I run a portfolio of small businesses. When I’m not working, I love traveling to walkable cities, training Muay Thai, and journaling in local cafes.
