get to know Jesse Pagz: Future Entrepreneur and World Dominator!

sassyNpunk models help us out a lot, and we like to help them out too! Get to know our models and see why we love them. Tonight, you are going to find out what makes alternative glamor model, Jesse Pagz, tick... kinda. I got to ask her a few question recently, and here's what I found out...

What's your professional name and how did you come up with it?
"My professional name is Jesse Pagz. It's basically just a shortened version of my real name. Thanks Mom and Dad!"

When did you decide to start modeling and why? 

"I started modeling when I was fourteen years old and was signed to an agency. I did some promotional modeling and acting as well. It was something I loved to do and was naturally good at. Then, unintentionally, I went on a rather long break and spent most of my time focused on my college education. Somehow I managed to fall back into it, networked, became friends with a lot of talented and wonderful people in the industry, and continue to grow everyday in this profession."

Did you consider yourself "beautiful" growing up? 

"NOT in middle school haha! I think as I've gotten older I've learned what enhances my features and what takes away from them. I appreciate my flaws and realize they are what make me unique! I've definitely grown into my body, but I still have moments where I let my insecurities get the best of me. At the end of the day though, I love being a woman and having curves!!"

What is your greatest accomplishment to date? 

"I'm really proud to have worked with so many amazing photographers, designers, makeup and hair stylists, models, musicians, etc., thus far. I've been able to shoot this year with some of my favorite photographers on Earth such as, Andy Hartmark, Danger Ninja, Chad Michael Ward, Travis Haight, Steve Prue(upcoming). I also had the chance to work with Lip Service, which was a phenomenal experience and was the lead girl in a music video called, "Throat Full of Glass" by Combichrist. I'm really thankful and appreciative of every opportunity that has been given to me and look at all of them as a great accomplishment. I owe much of my success to the people who have given me a chance and had faith in me."

Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 

"I would like to have my clothing line up and running and continue styling for commercials and feature films. I'd also like to have more magazines under my belt, maybe even a cover or two! Lastly, I want to have a backyard so my dog could run around and play more often!"

Do you really wear your sassyNpunk products? 

"Luckily, I do!! I wear my Star Wars Darth Vader Necklace all the time. Leyla is a great person and runs her business really well. I love love love sassyNpunk jewelry!"
