It was such a delight to interview model Alicia whom I've known since I've been modeling. Not only is she my long time friend, she is also a dedicated and loyal model that has blossomed in her modeling career. I hope to continue to see great things happen for Alicia in her modeling career. Here is her interview.

Alicia: I love to read a good romance novel, hang out with family and friends, and watch television.
Jchell: How long have you been modeling?
Alicia: about 6 years
Jchell: What was it like starting out as a model?
Alicia: It was different; I wasn’t sure how people liked plus size models especially with how people say negative things about people they feel are overweight. Also the group I started out with I had to spend a lot of money and things they promised didn’t always happen. I was able to meet some great people that are still in my life today.

Jchell: Every girl has a special “can't live without this” in her closet, what's yours?

Jchell: Who is your favorite photographer(s)?
Alicia: Bilal Alan and Chris Booth
Jchell: Knowing what you know, what advice would you give to other models trying to establish themselves.
Alicia: Know who you are. Pay attention to your surroundings you may have to model something you don’t like, wear a hairstyle that you think is terrible and wear shoes that hurt but keeps all comments to yourself you never know who is listening. Everyone is not your friend.
