In Esther’s words, “I have been into the modelling agency since I was 16, I remember the challenges we went through as models, it has not been an easy journey for me to be where I am today, models do not have an organized organization that empower and protect them, I wanted to break that silence and give those coming after me the opportunity so they don’t have to experience the challenges I went through”.
