Yorgary Martínez, 189 cm / 6’2.5″, Dominican, born October 3rd.
We Asked:
How and when did you become a model?
“Last summer I participated in the Elite Model Look contest where I was one of the 15 finalists and a casting director who was there scouted me and asked me for my info and took photos and sent to my current agency.”
What was your most embarrassing moment?
“Strangely as it sounds it was with my mom. My mom left for Spain when I was two and I was taken care of by my aunt. My mom came back to see me when I was 4 and because I had only had a telephone kind of relationship with her up to that moment I was so scared when I met her that I hid under the table.”
What’s the most difficult thing you have ever done?
“Hands down it was leaving my hometown in the Dominican Republic. Having to leave behind all my cousins, family and friends and come to a completely different country with a completely different culture.”
