Achonti Shanise

My name is Achonti Shanise. I’m 21 years old and I’m from the Bay Area. My ethnic background includes African American, French, and Portuguese. My dream and passion is modeling. I love everything that has to do with modeling from the photographer to the model but most of all the art behind it all. My ultimate goal is to become a positive motivator to plus size woman and women with curves. I want to extremely touch the hearts of all girls that believe that they are not beautiful enough to accomplish a modeling career. I want those girls to know that you don’t have to be a certain size or have a certain look to be a model you can be yourself and get farther in life than those who are not. Also to let them know if someone doesn’t love you for who you are they are not worthy enough to be loved by you.

I want everyone in the world to know that beauty is something that’s comes from within so in the end everyone is beautiful. I also want to let all youth know that don’t just relay on your dream to carry you through. Make sure you also strive in school. As for me I am currently attending a community college and studying to get my AA in Liberal Arts and my major is Business Management. School is the most important thing in my life next to modeling and I make sure I balance them accordingly.

I am an outgoing, self-motivated, dependable, organized, responsible, and a dedicated model. My style changes every time the photographer does, meaning I can go from being emotional to completely happy whenever I’m needed to. Default image by Maurice Chatman.
