BECA LARA Turning Heads Around the World When did you first get involved as a model? What or Who inspired you to pursue such a competitive career? My family helped inspire my curiosity for modeling by putting me through etiquette classes many summers in elementary and junior high. I learned how to walk in heels, speak in public, apply makeup and dress for success. I’m sure you have met a lot of talented individuals and/or celebrities along the way. Would your experiences with us? I have met many people especially when I lived in Vegas - in general those people that have leveraged their talent and themselves to become successful in fitness, modeling, makeup and photography by having an entrepreneurial mentality and showcasing that through social media. How has your modeling evolved since you first started? I have had so many new opportunities since I first started to be more creative, push my own boundaries and stay relevant. If you were forced to choose only one, which emotion, more than any other drives you to stay in these tough careers? Is it joy, anger, desire, passion or pride and why? Passion drives me to keep moving forward with my vision despite others feeling otherwise. My visionis mine so I can’t expect others to understand it all the time.
