Adella Pasos
Photography: JenoMedia.com
BRONZEMAGONLINE.COM FEBRUARY 2013 | 19
The Diverse and Sexy, American –born model, has been modeling since 2006. Born and raised in Chicago, IL, this city is well known for its wealth of public art works by such artistic heavyweights as Picasso, Chagall, Abakanowicz , and Miro.
Interested in the arts from a young age, Adella always knew that she would exercise her talents in a creative way. Adella sucessfully won awards in several regional and national competitions in sculpture, painting, graphic & contemporary arts throughout her years in school.
Adella initially got her start in the industry by conducting market research and creating business plans for small to mid size businesses that needed a new perspective on how to drive sales by use of marketing and promotions. As a model herself and promotions coordinator, this gave her the opportunity to explore the public relations side of marketing. She used her bright talents to execute with excellence.
Since then, Adella has been busy moving and shaking up the scene, posing for clothing ads, be-ing featured in magazines, making fashion show appearances, and working with professionals in the Music & Film industries.
Whats Next for Adella? She is currently transition-ing into a film career, as she’s started taking on several rolls aimed at the young adult audiences.
