My name is Tayo Ajose and I am a nerd by day and a model by night! I say that because I work as a Technical Solution Analyst by day, but by night, I model! My journey to modeling has been pretty unique! Growing up as a tomboy with my two brothers and mostly male cousins, I was not the poster child most modeling scouts usually look for, so modeling never really seemed like an option for me.

I mostly focused on running track and cross country and high jumping through high school and part of college. In college I ran/ high jumped as a D1 student athlete for 2 years before I left that life to focus on obtaining my degree in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Iowa. From there I was introduced to the underground fashion world in Iowa City, IA. This included Flyover Fashion Fest, and the Iowa City Soul Fest Fashion shows, among others, which is where modeling really began to take off for me! Since then, I've taken modeling more seriously, but I've only had more and more fun with each shoot and each show!

​

Other Skills Include: Voice, Dance (Hip-Hop, Contemporary, Modern, Afro-Cuban), Choreography, Ukulele, Event Management
