MODEL & COACH


Sara Byrd is from Evansville, Indiana and signed model with Heyman Talent Agency and BMG Models! She has been modeling for six years, and love the art form and expression of modeling, as someone that has always loved to create. Modeling has also helped Sara to grow personally, by giving me a space to come out of my shell.


After attending Coco Rocha Model Camp, and realizing the lack of mentorship in modeling, along with experiencing a lack of guidance throughout part of my own modeling career, Sara became deeply inspired to help other models. After hearing the heart behind IN POSE, and working with the talented individuals involved, Sara was beyond ecstatic to join them in helping to propel other models along their journey!
