ALBERTON – Gabriella Ferreirra (18), is an apprentice hairdresser at a salon in Bedfordview. Emma Griffen spokesperson for Figures Alberton describes her as young, vibrant and outgoing. She has been a student with Figures Models and Talent Alberton for about four years and is currently completing her teacher’s course at the Alberton Branch. Gabriella has won numerous awards including Miss Congeniality and Top Scorer at various competitions and has been a finalist in the Student and International Model of the Year.
Gabriella also has big dreams. She wants to help the local charities and help young talented people. Gabriella has been very busy in and around the Alberton, Germiston and Lambton areas, hosting several lucky draws at local primary schools and preschools, giving away many prizes and recruiting new students for the branch.
She has also done charity work at Epworth Children’s Home, where she treated children by painting their nails and handing out nail kits. She also visited Avril Elizabeth Home and donated blankets to the residents.
Gabriella has been invited to attend the International Model and Talent Association conference (IMTA), in New York, in July, as a model and is looking forward to the experience. “We wish Gabriella good luck and success with her future intern endeavours,” said Emma.
