Whitney<br />
Stephens<br />
Tell us a little about yourself:<br />
“My name is Whitney Stephens, I’m 19 years old<br />
and I’m from Detroit, Michigan. I’m currently a<br />
sophomore at Eastern Michigan University majoring<br />
in accounting and pursuing my Master’s degree. I have<br />
two on campus positions, one as an office assistant<br />
and the other as a professional fundraiser. I have two<br />
older sisters named Tiffany and Brittany. My hobbies<br />
include singing, shopping and freelance modeling.”<br />
What made you decide to start modeling?<br />
“Since I was a young girl, everyone around me would<br />
always say “you should be a model!” Even strangers.<br />
They would always comment on my tall, skinny frame.<br />
After shooting for a friend of a friend’s up-and-coming<br />
swimsuit collection a couple of years ago, I knew that<br />
modeling was something I could see myself doing. ”<br />
What’s something you can’t live without?<br />
“My phone. Hands down. I’m always checking my<br />
notifications, even when I know nothing is there.”<br />
How would you describe your style?<br />
“It varies. I like to follow trends that interest me,<br />
but most of the time I’m focused on finding a<br />
balance between style and comfort. Jeans, sweaters,<br />
hoodies, v-necks, etc. UGGs are also my best-friend<br />
during the cooler months.”<br />
What is your favorite quote?<br />
“Pretty might open doors, but intellect lets you in –<br />
Don’t be stuck outside with your pretty ass.”<br />
