Kicking off our collaboration with Southern California based modeling agency No Ties, we have one of their leading icons – Bryana Holly. No Ties has gained respect in the industry for their board of influencers and social media stars. Starting off our series with Bryana is a no-brainer. We became curious about Bryana through her cult like following and mysterious online persona and needed to learn more about her.

Tell us about your upbringing
I was born and raised in Orange County, CA so a lot of time was spent at the beach in the water. We didn’t have a lot of money growing up but my parents always kept me busy, I wanted to try everything as a child. My mother was supportive in anything I set my mind to- she took me to singing, dance, piano, and guitar lessons. I spent a ton of time outdoors as a kid as well, riding a bike or some sort of physical activity. My father used to take my places to fish, taught me to play basketball, baseball, etc.
Your parents seem to have brought you up well-rounded! What careers do they have/industry the work in? What is their opinion on you modeling? Have they always been supportive?
My dad works at Boeing, and my mom at the school district. At first my parents were skeptical of the modeling world- wanted me to do the whole college route. I will probably go back to school one day, but they are very supportive of me no matter what.
How were you like in high school?
In high school I was very shy, I still am. The beginning of high school was hard, girls were really mean to me. I remember them leaving horrible notes in my locker or shouting things at me when my parents picked me up from school. It’s part of the whole growing up thing to deal with bullies.. but I’m such a lover and never a fighter or aggressor, I tried to avoid all drama or confrontation by keeping to myself. I enjoyed classes and learning, but wasn’t into social activities much.
How did you get into modeling? Was it always something that you wanted to get into?
I was scouted by my first agency, No Ties when I was beginning my first year of college. It gave me the opportunity to meet and work with so many creative people, along with the chance to travel and explore new places I wouldn’t have otherwise. I feel blessed every day for the chances I’ve been given.
“You’ve got to use your power for good. Social media is a crazy thing, I’m still learning how to use it how I want.”
How did your agency No Ties scout you? Were you thinking of modeling before then?
No Ties saw some pictures of me and got in contact with me through a friend. I went in to meet them and decide to sign on the spot.
You have an almost cult like following, what’s the biggest insight you’ve gained from having this much power? What are your thoughts on social media? Are you able to tell us why you decided to disable your instagram for a few days?
You’ve got to use your power for good. Social media is a crazy thing, I’m still learning how to use it how I want. I disabled my Instagram because I simply needed a break, sometimes you just need time for yourself.
What interests do you have outside of modeling?
When I’m not working, I love to be outdoors. I enjoy fresh air and sunshine.. being in the ocean or hiking, etc. I enjoy traveling and exploring as much of the world as I can when I have time off. I’m a bit of a book worm as well, I love reading and learning.. anything that expands my mind.
Do you see yourself getting into acting?
Acting is something I would like to pursue more of. I’ve done a bit here and there, but like I said..I’m very shy so it feels to be bit of a challenge for me. I’m always up for a challenge though.. maybe you’ll see more of me in acting in the future..
What is your perception on real love?
Real love.. when you know, you know.

스포츠중계 볼수있는곳 알려드릴게요.
최근 참 많은 스포츠중계를 무료로 볼 수 있는 곳이 생겼죠
제가 알려드릴곳은 네네티비 라는 곳이에요.
“
제가 해외에 살고 있는데, 스포츠중계 검색해서 들어가려고 하면 막힌데가 정말 많더라구요. ㅠㅠ
네이버도 해외에서는 막혀서 좋아하는 야구도 못보고,
한국인의 자랑 손흥민 선수 경기도 보기가 힘들죠.
제가 찾아서 보던곳이 세군데였는데, 이제 여기 네네티비 하나 남았네요.
운영하시는분들도 친절하시구요, 채팅창이 있는데 눈살이 찌푸려질때도 있지만 관리는 잘되는 편인것 같아요.
네네티비 들어가면 바로 방송볼수 있는 화면이 나오는데, 플래쉬설정을 해줘야하긴해요. 하지만 공짜로 보는게
어딘가 싶네요. 연말전에 플래쉬설정 필요없게 사이트 개편한다는 말도 있고하니 좀만 참으면 더 쾌적하게
제가 좋아하는 야구, 농구, 축구 신나게 볼수 있을것 같아요.
주변 지인들에게도 추천해 줬는데, 다들 좋아라 하더라구요, 외국인 친구들이랑 같이본다고 하니까, 손흥민선수
한국어로 방송중계해주는데, 영어중계도 찾아서 틀어주시기도 하더라구요.
어쨋든 스포츠 보시려면 전 ‘네네티비’ 적극 추천합니다.
nene365.com <- 주소구요
구글에 '스포츠중계' 검색하시거나 '네네티비'만 검색해도 바로바로 나오더라구요!!
스포츠 좋아하시는데 보실데 없는 해외거주 한인여러분! 네네티비 한번 이용해보세요. 완전 강추입니다.
