In a world where your worth is often measured by the number of virtual thumbs-ups and followers you’ve amassed, enter Ellie Thumann, the social-media sensation who’s managed to surf the digital wave with pizzazz while keeping her authenticity radar on high alert. Picture this: Ellie, rocking her own unique style and serving up saucy yet relatable content that’s more addictive than your grandma’s secret cookie recipe, has practically pole-vaulted past the online borders. The sprightly 22-year-old hails from the sun-soaked city of Phoenix, Arizona, where her journey into the world of modeling began before most kids even master the art of tying their shoelaces. “Growing up, my mom used to model so it was always something I was fascinated by. When I was five or six years old, I got to do different newspaper shoots with her or be on the news, which was so fun for me. It’s crazy that I’ve made a full-time career out of it. It went from being just a fun thing I did as I grew up, to now being one of the most important aspects of my life.”
