Age: 20

height: 5'9 1/2"

Place of origin: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Deaf since birth, Brenda learned how to speak and read lips in Portugese when she was 7. Recently arrived in New York, Brenda says her next goal is to conquer the English language and take New York by storm. As her agent says, "Her determination and energy is incredible and inspiring."

How discovered: On the beach.

When not modeling.... I love dancing. I love feeling the vibration of the music. Being deaf is such a silent world, so it's important for me to create an inner world. That's why I also love reading. Right now, I'm reading Imocional Inteligencia (Emotional Intelligence).

What difference do you want to make in the world? I want to give hope and courage to people. Many times when a person has a handicap, it's hard for them to find inspiration to go and live life to its absolute fullest.
