InkSpired Magazine: How and when did your modeling career begin? Vany Vicious: I began modeling as soon as I turned 18. It happened very randomly though. I never considered myself a model or really thought I could have a successful career doing this. My roommate at the time and I got really bored one night and kind of decided to play dress up and take photos. I ended up putting the pics up online on social networks and things like that and when I saw I was getting a good response from everyone, i continued shooting with more professional photographers and it pretty much took off that way. InkSpired Magazine: Do you have any advice for aspiring models? Vany Vicious: The best advice I could give at this point is to not give up, and don’t take what people say too much to the heart. Stay strong, focused, and fuck the haters. Stand behind your work. InkSpiredMagazine.com 9
