PERLA CORDERO Sight on The Prize Perla Cordero is an driven model based in New Mexico. When did you first get into modeling? I first got into modeling when I was 14; sometime between 2011 and 2012, but that didn’t last very long. I was still under parental supervision, and my parents didn’t have time to take me to every casting. However, it wasn’t until 2019 when i finally got the courage to get in front of the camera once again.

Who or What inspired you to be a model? To be honest, this is a difficult question. To me modeling has somehow always been in my system. As a child I was always going into my mother and grandmother’s closet in search of their high heels; or sticking my little feet into plastic cups to make myself taller. Since the day I learned to walk I always walked one foot in front of the other. I adored dressing up and taking photos. Every day I’m inspired by old and new artists whether it is Char, Prince, Rihanna, or Gaga.

What style of model do you consider your work to be? I consider my modeling style to be artistic. I love visual arts. Whether it is designing or wearing designer items, creating art by cosplay, or just creating visual appeal. I love wearing not your average wardrobe. Some days I’m classy, some days I’m edgy, but most days I’m playful. If you were forced to choose only one, which emotion, more than any other drives you to stay in this tough business? Is it joy, anger, desire, passion or pride and why? I would have to say the emotion that drives me through life would be passion. I love to find the beauty in everything I do or anything I see. I like to say that everything I do I do it with passion whether it be my job or a hobby. Passion is really something that drives me to pursue anything in life really. With enough passion for any dream it can become a reality.
