Born and raised in Cincinnati, OH, Toria Renee' Lee is Ohio's newest plus size model and makeup artist to emerge in the fashion and modeling industry. Modeling and being a makeup designer has been a passion of hers ever since she was a little girl. Not only does she have skills in the fashion world, but also in technology as well. She currently has an Associate's degree in Network Communications in Information Systems, and pursuing a Bachelors in Business Management. She is currently a Network Support Specialist for Time Warner Cable.
Wanting to make women feel beautiful about themselves, Toria launched her own business
Artistry by Toria as CEO and Chief Makeup Artist (MUA), where she comes to you to make you feel beautiful for a day. Where her specialties include weddings, photo shoots, proms/homecomings, makeover's among other
things.
Through the years Toria has always been a person that others have looked up to and have been inspired by because of her confidence and being humble at the same time. Toria being an inspiration and a help to other people is the greatest feeling in the world. She devotes her free and personal time to volunteering for various organizations such as Connect a Million Minds (CAMM), Inspirational Baptist Church Media and Youth/Young Adult Ministry, and also donations to various local charities, clothing and food drive.
What keeps Toria grounded is her continuous strive to better her spiritual relationship with God, keeping her family close and never settling for less. Her inspirations include her grandmother's, her mother, her two sisters and niece.
Being a model is not just being on the runway and taking pictures, its everything together in one starting from the inside and out, in which shows who Toria really is, a role model. No matter how the day will be or any situation that she goes through one scripture that stays with Toria is “I can do all things through christ who strengthens me...” Philippians 4:13
