Kristia Knowles - Fact Sheet

Profession: Supermodel

I began modeling around the age of 16. I was the perfect fashion model figure (ultra thin and ultra tall). My first job was for Sebastian hair care. I was mortified on stage with hundreds of onlookers in the crowd! Over time, I've lost a shoe, busted a zipper and fallen off the stage! Looking back, it all seems quite humorous. Fashion modeling gave me the opportunity to experience a lot of great places and interesting people. In 1996, unable to take the cold weather any longer, I moved to Tampa with the help of U-Haul (and of course my parents). I cried for a straight week. I was determined I made a mistake, and as soon as my six month lease was up, I was moving home. I worked as a physical therapist at a nursing home in St. Pete. I quickly made friends at work and my apartment complex. I started getting involved in sports again, but I did not return to modeling. In 1999, while visiting my agency in NYC, I had a chance meeting with photographer Brian Moss. Thanks to his assistance, I began my career in fitness modeling. I have met many photographers, makeup artists, stylists and art directions, who have all been wonderful. I thank you all for the opportunity to work together.
