Kendall Leigh

About Model

Hi!!! I’m Kendall Leigh, I’m 18 years old and from New York.. not the city but upstate… though I would LOVE to live in NYC! I have been dancing my whole life. I started at the age of 4, with tap ,ballet, and jazz. And when I was 8 I took on hip hop, which I’ve been doing since!! I have been in a couple short films on Amazon Prime, which is how my modeling career began!! I was on set, and someone said I looked incredible in front of the camera and asked if I had an Instagram account. At the time, I did not. Although my mom and I gave it some thought and shortly after started my professional Instagram account. As time went on I’ve gained followers, had AMAZING opportunities, Brand deals , met some amazing friends and I’ve had a ton of fun!! As of now, I’ve been modeling for around 4 1/2-5 years! I’ve walked in NYFW 4 times in the past couple years and this coming February I’ll be adding a couple more walks to my list. Being on the runway is a such an amazing experience and I am so grateful for the opportunities. My goal as a model is to get into commercial/print modeling and I’m really hoping I’ll have the chance someday. I’m also looking into getting into acting classes which will help to further my career in the industry. I was accepted at a University last fall but I decided to take a gap year to see where my career leads me. I’m really looking forward to seeing what the future holds for me and I’m hoping that this contest will help guide me.
