Mink Ming has grown to be a native “it” girl. The twenty-one year old model has worked with  city favorites, including fashion photographer LBasnight. From shoots, castings and shows, the high-fashion roller coaster may pay off sooner than later. Could she soon be New York’s fresh face?

From an outsider’s perspective, I would instantly consider this a dream being pursued. Noticing how rapid her name has spread over the course of a few months, there has to be passion fueling that engine right? However, is becoming a model really Ming’s ultimate goal or merely a stepping stone for recognition on a broader scale? Perhaps I should pick her brain, in an exclusive interview on the ins and outs of it all.
