MODEL CITIZEN: STEFANIE AXISA
STEFANIE AXISA is a 17-year old beauty who began modelling quite some time ago. Currently in her first year at MCAST studying Business and Commerce, Stefanie has big dreams both in the modelling world and as a business woman.
I’m the youngest of my six siblings and used to see my older sisters modeling. I started modelling with one of my sisters when I was four years old and then I began again when I was thirteen. At this time I started competing in competitions to gain some experience and more confidence.
When it comes to idols, I don’t intentionally emulate other models and I’m not inspired by any famous personalities. One of my role models is my sister Christine – since I was young she’s always pushed me and helped me to get in this industry, and she’s encouraged and supported me during competitions and fashion shows.
One of my best achievements so far is when I won Miss Glamorous Lady 2015 with Glamorous Entertainment, hosted by Vince Taliana. It was such a great experience and I surely will never forget it. Some other achievements that I’ve had in my career include being part of the top 10 from Malta to compete in Miss European, with several other countries. I’m very proud to say that I was chosen once again with the European team Malta 2015 to represent Malta in the UK. I also competed in Face of Malta and World Next Top Model Malta, in which I gained a lot of experience and made a lot of friends.
Modelling has given me the satisfaction to build up my self-esteem, as I was bullied at school since I was in pre-grade until I was a senior. It’s satisfying to prove wrong all the people who told me that I couldn’t do it, and I showed them that I can – I won’t give up, no matter what others say.
My ambitions are to continue my success in the modeling and fashion industry, and to open my own dancing school.
My ideal man is a tall brunette who practices some kind of sport, preferably football. Last but not least he would be smart, kind, loving and the most importantly, be honest and loyal. My ideal date could be anywhere, I don’t have any specific place to go, as long as we chit chat and get to know each other.
