I noticed early on that a look is important; a unique clothing style adds flair that catches the eye beyond your skating talent alone. As I tried to emulate the style of my favorite skaters, I realized that wearing clothes you feel cool in is really fun and empowering. I started paying more attention to the most unique people in skating and found out that a lot of them were models as well. Ever since then, it\u2019s been my dream to be a model in New York City. As I continued into skateboarding, I met a lot of people that shared my interest in fashion, and from there, my love of the world of modeling and high fashion grew. I am happy to say that I\u2019ve started to fulfill my ambitions, I recently moved to New York City, and I\u2019ve just signed with Q Model Management!<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What\u2019s your most prized possession and why?<\/strong><br \/>\nWhen I was a child, I had a thick blanket from my grandmother. It was one of the few things she could bring while immigrating to this country from Korea, and I slept with it almost every night. Unfortunately, last January, my childhood home burned down, and I lost this treasure forever. I was really upset about this, but when I first moved to New York, my grandma brought me the other blanket she had taken from Korea. I\u2019ve been sleeping with it every night, and I will continue this for the rest of my life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 An issue or cause you are passionate about:<\/strong><br \/>\nI believe a problem that is overlooked far too often is Asian hate. As someone who has felt the harm that racism can inflict, I feel for anyone that faces this adversity. It breaks my heart to see hate crimes against the people that share my heritage, and I hope to see it get the attention and dedication it deserves in the future. I can say that seeing these injustices being brought to light at all is progress, we have a long way to go, but I am optimistic that times are changing.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span class=\"modelname\">Isabelle<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-69304 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/02\/mdcselects_isabellemaranhao03.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Isabelle Maranh\u00e3o\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/02\/mdcselects_isabellemaranhao03-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-69311\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-69311'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Isabelle Maranh\u00e3o\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/02\/mdcselects_isabellemaranhao02.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Isabelle Maranh\u00e3o\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/02\/mdcselects_isabellemaranhao02-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-69310\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-69310'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Isabelle Maranh\u00e3o\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/02\/mdcselects_isabellemaranhao01.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Isabelle Maranh\u00e3o\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/02\/mdcselects_isabellemaranhao01-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-69309\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-69309'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Isabelle Maranh\u00e3o\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p><strong>Who:<\/strong><br \/>\nIsabelle Maranh\u00e3o (<a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/_isamaranhao\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@_isamaranhao<\/a>) \u2014 180 cm \/ 5&#8217;11&#8221; \u2014 Brazilian from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil \u2014 born February 18th \u2014 she\/her.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/mix-models-agency\">Mix Models Agency (Rio de Janeiro &#8211; mother agency)<\/a>, <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/Kult-Model-Agency\">Kult Hamburg<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What\u2019s your most prized possession and why?<\/strong><br \/>\nMy family!

But in the meantime, I lost my dad, my biggest support network and my best friend. So I gave up that dream to help my family at that time. But a very important person did not allow me to give up and sent my photos to an agency that invited me to work with them. From then on, I started working and got here. I won&#8217;t stop until I achieve much more, but I&#8217;m so grateful for everything I&#8217;ve accomplished and for everyone who has been part of this journey with me.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span class=\"modelname\">John<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-3' class='gallery galleryid-69304 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/02\/mdcselects_johndeng04.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy John Deng\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/02\/mdcselects_johndeng04-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-3-69314\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-3-69314'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy John Deng\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/02\/mdcselects_johndeng03.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy John Deng\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/02\/mdcselects_johndeng03-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-3-69313\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-3-69313'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy John Deng\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/02\/mdcselects_johndeng02.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy John Deng\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/02\/mdcselects_johndeng02-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-3-69312\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-3-69312'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy John Deng\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p><strong>Who:<\/strong><br \/>\nJohn Deng (<a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/john_deng23\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@john_deng23<\/a>) \u2014 188 cm \/ 6&#8217;2&#8243; \u2014 Canadian from Naruth, South Sudan \u2014 born January 1st \u2014 he\/him.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/Lizbell-Agency\">Lizbell Agency (Vancouver &#8211; mother agency)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 One thing people may be surprised to find out about you:<\/strong><br \/>\nI cannot deal with snakes.

All the terraces were full of people while a movie was played in a beautiful church. My friend and I got a nice spot somewhere on the terrace. During the movie, I really needed to pee, so I decided to go to the toilet at the restaurant. Once I did that, I walked out of the restaurant, past the whole terrace back to my place in the front. As I walked, I heard people laughing and looking at me. Also, I saw my friend looking at me like I was crazy. When I got back to her, I asked what was wrong. She pointed to my ass&#8230; There was a huge string of toilet paper hanging out of my pants. She tried to pull it out, but it was a never-ending piece of paper.
