Patricia Velásquez

Creativity extends beyond films, canvas, photos, and media. It is also the catalyst for philanthropy and charity and also activism. Patricia Velasquez, an award-winning actress, history-making model who is a tireless philanthropist as well as an activist, and also mother of two, brings an unwavering creative drive to all she does whether it's in blockbusters such as The Curse of La Llorona or launching the Wayuu Taya Foundation, and taking part on the UNESCO Board. She believes in intuition , and a pioneer in her own direction. She says, "I see my career as a ladder." "I have taken every step to the top. It was amazing to accomplish this, because there has been perseverance. I just put my head down and made one step at a time. Then it was over. This analogy is reminiscent of the first experience of forming. After a couple of years she relocated to Venezuela. She was born in Venezuela and was raised in France and Mexico. Her parents, who worked as teachers in South America, moved her family into a cramped, cramped residence without running water or elevators. Patricia took 15 steps up using heavy buckets to supply water to the area. She tried to help her family as much as possible despite pursuing engineering and a rigorous dance program. The opportunity to be a model in Milan and her rise to the heights of the fashion world hinged on a promise to her family and friends. She relates, "When they asked me to go to Italy I replied"If I can pay thirty dollars per month back to Venezuela and it's worth it in the sense that it would cover the entire building's water'." Patricia's achievements marked an important moment in fashion when she first brought the attention of fashion's industry to South America. Her "first modeling gig Karl Lagerfeld photographed" was an incredible breakthrough. The model went on to appear in fashion shows in front editorial spreads as well as in advertisements for Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana and Fendi. The model was also featured in Oprah's "Supermodel of the World Contest" by Ford Models. The covers of her book also appeared of Vogue, Bazaar, Marie Claire and numerous other publications.
