Models, for examples, are inherently known and liked for their radiant beauty, however, their fans often don’t have a channel to find out what goes beyond their incredible looks. Ashley Smouter is a Canadian model that has become a virtuoso at using Instagram to bolster her modeling career. Regardless of the fact that social media promotes her image as a model, it also gives her a chance to put on display her interests and passions that go beyond modeling. Her booming social media fame is reflected in the 600k followers she has amassed since joining the platform. Smouter says that she is pleased with the current state of social media, it gives her and other models alike the opportunity to show their interests, personalities, and skillsets outside of their modeling career. Ashley is passionate about animals and the vegan lifestyle, Instagram is a great tool for her to display her love of such passions, as it serves as a platform for her to discuss animal welfare, with the aid of various charities that support her passion for these subjects. Ashley wants people to adopt the vegan lifestyle, so she often promotes this desire by sharing her very own tasty recipes that are sure to captivate her followers in hopes of transitioning to a vegan lifestyle. Ashley has supplemented her growing modeling career with degrees in psychology and sociology, two great fields of knowledge that fortify and increase her powerful social media presence. Smouter is looking to engage in other opportunities in social media, as she is inspired by witnessing the powerful impact of her Instagram page. She is planning to start her own YouTube channel by the end of December as another great avenue to showcase her passions.
