Another fashion model I’ve met during the Step Up — Modeling for a Cause fashion event was Sabrina Olivia Pellunat. I couldn’t believe how dedicated she was in making the event happen even though it was a charity event. I remember meeting her for the first time at Lexington Hotel with her adorable mom. She was patiently waiting for me, and I had no idea it was her. I just kept staring at her, and I said to myself, this girl is so cute (LOL). Just like fashion model Anna Vega, Sabrina is also an epitome of a very approachable and down to earth model. Aside from modeling, Sabrina has been very active in musical plays and commercials. She appeared in a Duracell commercial back in 2013. She is currently filming a movie called The Orchard Beach. I was very fortunate to have been given a chance to speak with Sabrina to get to know her better.
Nicole: How did you start modeling?
Sabrina: I started modeling by volunteering in fashion shows to gain significant experience. This led to printing jobs, a Duracell commercial, and several music videos.
Nicole: Who inspired you to become a fashion model?
Sabrina: I guess you can say it was when I saw my first Victoria Secret Fashion Show. It seemed so exciting and I wanted to start modeling.
Nicole: What does your career do for you?
Sabrina: My career allows me to express myself and get my foot in the door to pursue my other passions such as acting and singing.
Nicole: What’s your most memorable shoot?
Sabrina: My most memorable shoot was when I got chosen to do a commercial for Duracell battery.
Nicole: What’s the biggest highlight of your career to date? Why was it a highlight?
Sabrina: The biggest highlight of my career is the numerous opportunities I’ve received through modeling, the great people I’ve met along the way and the fact that I was able to continue my acting ambitions which began this summer as a lead in a movie. I’m really looking forward to that and I have several other acting projects coming as well.
