"Working with Project Runway and Gunnar Deatherage was an incredible experience. I received all of my instructions in a timely manner, so all I had to do was show up on time. It reminded of the Model Launcher team in Miami. Model Launcher has definitely been a spring board for my modeling career. I can't wait to see what is in store for my modeling career within the coming months." States Brandi Nicole, June ModelLauncher.com winner. "The professionalism of the Project Runway team made the excitement of a live show and the beautiful people I met behind the scenes really enjoyable. I'm grateful that Deatherage's collection was my first show in Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week."
