About me

I am a half Hong Kong half English but was raised in America. I moved to Tokyo in 2017 to study Mandarin Chinese and Japanese. I got scouted to be a hair model and did my first photoshoot in December of 2017 for a hair salon called The Remmy. Since then I have freelanced for 6 years modeling for small vintage brands, hair salons, fashion students, independent designers and more. I have also done some voice over work as well as been an extra for music videos. My Instagram is tarnya.joy
