BWB - Since you just got your degree, you’re pretty new to the modelling industry. So tell us about yourself babe?
CHARLENE - I would describe myself as a go-getter…. I love making the most of life and believe that anything you want in life you can have, you just have to put the work in. I’m just me, and always will be. I want to make sure I live my life 2 the full! I am a firm believer that solely relying on something as temporary and superficial as outward beauty to ensure success is not practical or realistic. This explains why graduating with honours was one of my most significant accomplishments. I am a Bubbly and ambitious person, who is cheerful and outgoing, a down to earth girl, always up for a laugh, love embracing new situations and as people say never judge a book by its cover. I believe that with my ambition and personality I will be able to reach my goals in life.

“You can be born pretty but beauty is a decision [copyright 9-2-2007] becoz beauty is a reflection of what is happening inside!!!...And remember always be yourself coz the people that MIND don’t MATTER and those that MATTER don’t MIND...BIG 5"

BWB - Before you started modelling what were your ambitions in life?
CHARLENE - Well I wanted too be educated to degree level, I like computers and so that was an area I wanted to develop in, when I was younger I wanted to be a hairdresser but as I matured I realised that was not the career I wanted.

My main ambition is to be successful in life and to be happy….I want to be proud of myself and make my family proud.

BWB - What made you decide to purse modelling?
CHARLENE - Well modelling wasn’t originally the career I wanted to do as I mentioned earlier I think the first thing that made me have a interest in it was when I done my first photo shoot at one of them studios up west end the ones that everyone can do. I enjoyed myself so much that from there I took an instant interest. It did start as fun and then I realised that this is something I want to pursue.

BWB - As far as your career is concerned, what do you want to accomplish?
CHARLENE - I want to make it BIG…I don’t think you should limit what you can do and how far you can go. So for me I want to make it worldwide!

BWB - So what are your plans to make you a success as a model?
CHARLENE - Hard work is Key! I feel that if you put 100% into something you will get where you want to be in life. I also feel that networking is a major aspect, trying to get exposure so really getting your face out there. I believe that with my ambition and personality I will be able to reach my goals in life.

CHARLENE - Nickita 'UKs BLACK ROSE' Martins.
