Moya is a London based model and the co-founder of Models Empowered, a community that supports, informs and empowers fashion models. She's represented in the UK by Wilhelmina and has worked for the likes of Victoria Beckham's beauty brand and Charlotte Tilbury. Her involvement in modelling doesn't stop here. As part of her work with Models Empowered, she recently contributed to a Guardian podcast on the exploitation of models. Moya takes us through the trials and tribulations of modelling: from the high of being scouted at 15 to being told she needed to lose weight to get bookings. We delve into how this environment led to her developing an eating disorder. We go through how she dealt with body confidence issues and what it was like trying to grow up and work as a model at the same time.
