From PLUS Directory Shoot to Being Signed... Suzette Banzo Interviews Plus Model Monica, 11/01/2008

Suzette: Fantastic! I've seen the Flaunt board and you are
definitely in good company with Maddy, Lisa Scott, Dlo Brown (as a
model) and one of my favorites Angellika.
Monica: Yes, I know 2/3rds of the models on the board thanks to MM and
Myspace. Their advice helped me assess the agency itself and that it
would be a good fit for me, I heard nothing but great things about the
agency, so I was ecstatic beyond composure (on the inside) when I was
told "Welcome on board".
Suzette: Have you been sent on any castings yet?
Monica: Yes, I can't put into words how happy, nervous, joyful I was
and how much I wanted to cry tears of joy all while maintaining my
composure when I was sent to a casting for Curvation right after being
signed.
Suzette: WOW! Monica, I'm not surprised I mean...that's like
hearing "Hi Monica, we want you to work with Queen Latifah on this
project she has."
Monica: LOL I know! The whole day really felt like a dream. Then going
home, and seeing my face on the Flaunt site just made me cry. I felt so
accomplished and exuberant, it's just an indescribable feeling, working
so hard for so many years and then achieving your goals. It felt
similar to graduating from college, but modeling has been such a great
passion of mine, that I honestly felt so much more excited and humbled
by the knowledge that I finally "did it".
