Up and comer Dena Habboush is Chic Models, October, Model of the Month.  Dena comes to us from the suburb of Blue Bell, Pennsylvania, but lives in Philadelphia during the school year.  Not only is Dena beautiful, but this young lady is ultra-smart.  Dena H RightShe is studying for her doctorate in Pharmacy as we speak.  WOW!!!  Interestingly enough, she was born in Iraq and came to Dena H LeftAmerica with her family when she was just a baby.

She caught the modeling bug in High School where she would model for her friends who were in a photography class.  She said she “loved the concept of dressing up and picking a fun scene to capture the moment.”  As a biology major in undergrad school, she was always super stressed.  She would turn to modeling as a stress relief, where she could escape the world of studying and go on fun photoshoots.  She started to build her portfolio and work with many different photographers.  She has done studio shoots, glamour shoots, hair shows, and runway shows.  All the while studying for her doctorate.

She looks forward to advancing her modeling career and getting more involved in the industry.  She would love to get published and get her name out there.  She loves fashion and feels her style is geared toward that.  Dena wants to inspire others who follow her through her modeling.  She just loves the creativity that emerges through modeling and enjoys being able to escape her life as a pharmacy student to create art.  Brains and beauty, a perfect combination…..
