About Kaya

I’m a model, artist, and writer based in Fort Lauderdale. I’m drawn to the intensity of a close-up and to the freedom to move and play on set.

I love shaping a concept with a creative team, from finding the mood to experimenting with gesture and expression on set.

I’m especially drawn to beauty, fashion, and wellness brands that prioritize sustainability and animal welfare, from sourcing organic materials to choosing non-toxic ingredients.
