Hi, I'm Lyla. I'm 18 years old and I just moved to New York City from Colombia a few months ago. My family has always been really supportive of me and my dreams. They helped me come here so that I could pursue my modeling career.
I love being in front of the camera and expressing myself through my body language and facial expressions. I've always felt comfortable with who I am and what I look like, but it wasn't until I moved to New York that I really started to embrace it.
The city is such a vibrant place with so many different kinds of people from all over the world. It's been amazing to see how different cultures express themselves through their style and fashion choices. And, of course, I love being able to show off my own body here in Times Square!
I hope that one day I can inspire other young women out there to embrace their own unique beauty and use it to pursue their dreams.
