We had the good fortune of connecting with Mo Turner and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Mo, alright, let’s jump in with a deep one – what’s you’re definition for success?
I think it’s important to have clearly defined goals and go after them.

I know at the end of the day the we are each responsible for the success or failure for our own lives.

What should our readers know about your business?

I’m the current President/CEO of NW Model Management, and former Vice President / Stone Model Management.
I have worked in the entertainment industry for approximatley two decades as a model myself.
NW Model Management was created with the premise of fair representation of Models and Talent in the industry.
I want to make sure that there is adequate representation in the entertainment industry regardless of age, color, or size.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?

I would bring them to Portland City Grill. It’s my favorite place to dine when I’m back in Portland, Oregon.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
My mother has been a huge factor in my success. She’s always taught me to believe in myself and spread love and inspiration to others.
