Sierra Johnson

From the moment I became active on social media, I knew I wanted to pursue a career as a fashion influencer. Inspired by others in the industry, I recognized the potential to monetize my presence on platforms like Instagram. To align my content with the aesthetics of established fashion influencers who resembled my style, I began curating my social media presence carefully. Initially, without anyone to help capture my content, I collaborated with local photographers in Chicago. While the photos I took with them didn’t fit the traditional Instagram influencer style, they showcased a more professional modeling aesthetic. Recognizing an opportunity to further develop my career, I reached out to Fashionbar Chicago to help transition my passion into a professional modeling path. This decision marked a significant turning point in my career. I am deeply motivated by the desire to inspire other young women and girls through my modeling career. My goal is to demonstrate that no matter the challenges they may face, success is always within reach. I aim to show women that they should pursue their dreams unapologetically, embracing their authentic selves along the way. I want to empower women to follow their passions, assert their worth, and never accept "no" as an answer. For me, modeling in the fashion industry is not just a career—it's a calling. I am dedicated to being a source of inspiration and a trendsetter, paving the way for others to confidently step into their own power.
