Can you believe that October is already here? That means it is time to unveil our newest Model of the Month, the smart and bubbly beauty, Rachel Zeppa. Rachel spent her early years in Traverse City, Michigan, but last year made the move from New York City to Los Angeles. She has only been full-time in the industry for a couple of years, but modeling and acting have always been in her blood. She was involved in theatre in college but also had many other interests and passions that she was focusing on during those years. So, she put her modeling on the back burner for a bit and got a corporate management job on Wall Street in New York. It wasn’t until she left that job and went on a 4-month backpacking trip through South America that she realized how important it was to really dive into her creative space and give it her full attention in order to start building her career and making a name for herself.
Since then, Rachel has been rocking it out. She has shot print campaigns, socials, as well as commercials for HGTV Home, Google, Subway, Keranique, Coca Cola, NFL, Cooper Fit, Jack in the Box, Olipop, Cora Brand, and more! She was cast in the feature film, “Invisible War Film” and was the lead in the short film “Radio Score.” That short film went on to win the Audience Choice Award and the NYC Woman in Film and Television Emerging Female Filmmaker Award. She has been interviewed for “LA Voyage” and featured in magazines such as, “Bust” Magazine NYC and “Downtown Weekly LA.”
Her dream is to work on big national campaigns for clothing, athletic, and health companies such as Nike, Adidas, Brooks, Garden of Life, and so many more. Rachel wants to see her face on a giant billboard in LA or Times Square one day. She also would love to partner with more health-conscious, eco-friendly, culturally aware brands that have an authentic mission and product. Once her platform is bigger, she would like to give those voices and smaller impactful companies that deserve it, a way to be heard. We need more people in this world like you, Rachel and we wish you all the success!
