Sharleen Wanjiru

I am a passionate Deaf Kenyan model, pageant contestant and advocate for Deaf inclusion. My journey in modeling and pageantry has taught me confidence, discipline and the importance of believing in myself. I have represented myself in different competitions and gained valuable experience in runway, advocacy and leadership. I am passionate about creating more opportunities for Deaf people in the modeling and fashion industry. I am applying because I want to grow as a model, inspire others, break barriers and show that being Deaf does not limit talent, beauty or ambition. I believe in self-love, equal opportunities and using my platform to create positive change.
