Meet Teleonte Smith-Tasco | Model


We had the good fortune of connecting with Teleonte Smith-Tasco and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Teleonte, how do you define success?
I define success as achieving your goals that you have personally set for yourself.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I think what sets me apart from other models is my unique appearance. I like to think that I have a unique look that isn’t seen on other models.
It took me a while to come to terms with my look, it has helped me find my niche in modeling.
One lesson that I have learned is that I am not for everyone and that is okay.
Right now, I am just excited to see what the future brings me.
Hard work and drive are two things that got me to where I am today.
I want people to know that I am still here; I’m not going anywhere anytime soon.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
The local coffee shops and local breweries are a must stop for great food and drinks.
We would hang out at the parks and enjoy the views of the Mississippi River.
The local night life can be exciting, you never know who you may run into or what you’ll see.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Joey Joelle and the amazing people at SCE Agency as well as Posh Model Management.
