PS: I'm sure you've been asked this before, but you and Madeline Stuart are creating the path for people with Down syndrome to become fashion and beauty models. What do you think that says about the changing face of beauty?
KM: Well, beauty belongs to everyone. It's being brave and having confidence in yourself. We were just normal and having fun, telling people, "Hey, this is what we are!" And we like to show that people with or without disabilities deserve the chance to be beautiful.
PS: Do you have any words of advice for someone who is living with Down syndrome and has a dream?
KM: To chase after and follow your dreams. Having Down syndrome hasn't changed me. I've always been in normal classes like my sisters. I've always been active with them, because they do a lot of activities. So I've always fit in with them. It's been hard, a little bit, but I actually overcame my challenges. I've had my family and friends who've always had my back and supported me with everything I do.
