We recently connected with Ciara Ross and have shared our conversation below.

Ciara , thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. One of the things we most admire about small businesses is their ability to diverge from the corporate/industry standard. Is there something that you or your brand do that differs from the industry standard? We’d love to hear about it as well as any stories you might have that illustrate how or why this difference matters.

Tenacitymodels is absolutely different , many people think we are a modeling agency we are not! However we specialize in self development for young ladies & how to incorporate grace into every day interactions “Where mentoring through fashion Matters”; every social engagement has an etiquette to learn. Our core mission is to ignite personal and professional development while obtaining sets of attributes in etiquette and life skills, as well as perfecting a models craft. I have a passion to mentor and assist younger tiers with achieving their aspirations beyond modeling. Tenacitymodels provides countless opportunities for youth through our programs. The Epitome of Poise and Elegance “A Tenacious Sorority “Which Concentrates on a Virtuous,Intellectual, and Eloquent, Women’s Development program hIghlighting mentorship through fashion. The over sexualization of young ladies has provided such a false narrative…It needs to be embedded there’s more to life than lashes, bundles and handbags although these things are fashionable they don’t help acquire life skills.

Our program offers professional model coaching for fashion runway, photo shoots, public speaking as well as etiquette classes and self development workshops We’ve even added a young prince division. In addition TenacityModels has journals which are available on Amazon so be sure to grab one. Upcoming Workshops events Friday May 20th & Saturday May 21st 2022 in Elizabeth New Jersey & Also June 18th 2022 in Houston Texas.

Are there any resources you wish you knew about earlier in your creative journey?

Absolutely! I wish there was an organization such as Tenacitymodels when I began to have interest in the fashion industry. There was so little assistance offered in such a big industry, mentorship is a necessity and will definitely save you time. Find Mentors & like minded people.
