Meet zay penny | multi creative

We had the good fortune of connecting with zay penny and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi zay, let’s start by talking about what inspires you?
This a question I really don’t have an direct answer to . Life inspires me. Everything that comes with life. God waking me up everyday inspires me . My past experiences, the good and the bad . Different cultures and people, Faith , happiness , money , music , movies , women , seeing friends and strangers win is everything to me . Everything that comes with life pretty much . My parents, siblings and what they taught me growing up is priceless . The more I grow in life I’m inspired by the smallest and strangest things . I’m 23 but seeing younger people like 18 , 19 go so hard for what they want in life inspires me . Because I remember being that age running around in New York at NYFW trying to be somebody . Even Seeing older people not give up on their dreams and still trying to conquer the life they always wanted is inspiring . I can really talk for days about what inspires me because I’ve experience and seen so much in my little time on this earth . It makes me appreciate so much , life is really priceless . You have to live it up to the fullest and find anything as inspiration .

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
It definitely wasn’t easy , my first shoot for the magazine was on a four hundred dollar budget with nothing but my close friends . I’ve gotten rejected by mid level creatives, high profile celebrities. It never slowed me down, I have a mission to complete and I just can’t wait for nobody to see the vision. Biggest lesson I’ve learned was to always do good business . Believe in something and keep going no matter what !. I went from 9 models in Dallas 2020 to 30 models in 2021 . Only because I didn’t quit , I never gave up on my vision . I’m still going, I’m never going to stop getting better . Creative face will be world Wide in 5 years , guarantee it . I want the world to know that creative face is for everyone, We want to be the main resource for creatives to feel comfortable to share their story. We want to introduce new talent to the world .

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My team, easily . Creative face team has a huge part of any success I have . Lala , Blessing , David , raf , Bryan , bruised and the whole team it’s like 20 of them . I’m beyond grateful for a team with the same goals and ambition as me .
