TANESHA JACKSON BIO:

FROM MILITARY BRAT SANDS OF NEWPORT NEWS,VIRGINIA TO MEMPHIS,TENNESSEE I AM TANESHA JACKSON. DAUGHTER OF MONIQUE CHATMAN

I ATTENDED SOUTHWEST TENNESSEE COMMUNITY COLLEGE FROM 2005-2007 AND MAJORED IN COMPUTER SOFTWARE SPECIALIST. WHILE I WAS AT SOUTHWEST I DID A TON OF VOUNTEER WORK FOR THE SCHOOL AND THE COMMUNITY.I ALSO HELPED IN THE CAREER SERVICE CENTER AND STUDENT SERVICES.

I CHEERED TWO YEARS FOR THE TWO NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP CHEERLEADING SQUAD. AFTER THIS THE CHEER TEAM WAS FEATURED IN JET MAGAZINE IN JUNE OF 2006.

MODELING AND ACTING HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN MY PLAN BUT AS A FULL FIGURED WOMAN SOMETIMES YOU THINK IT MIGHT NOT HAPPEN. I STARTED SUBMITTING MY PICTURES TO AGENCIES AND NO LUCK. I BECAME MY OWN INSPIRATION AND NEVER STOPPED TRYING.I WORKED ON DIFFERENT PROJECTS AND VOLUNTEERED A LOT OF TIME TO MAKE OTHERS HAPPY. IT PAYED OFF WHEN I DECIDED TO COMPETE IN THE MISS PLUS AMERICA PAGEANT IN 2007. AFTER LACK OF SUPPORT I HAD TO DROP OUT. BUT THAT MADE ME STRONGER AND I GOT SIGNED TO BEAUTY QUEEN MANAGEMENT IN LATE 2007. I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON A BOOK OF POEMS AND SHORT STORIES.

SINCE THEN I HAVE WORKING NON STOP I THINK AND I AM TRULY GRATEFUL. BEING A PLUS MODEL IN MEMPHIS HAS A LOT OF CHALLENGES. I AM AT A TIME IN MY LIFE THAT I FEEL ITS MY TIME TO SHINE AND SHOW OTHERS WHAT I AM MADE OF.

FROM THE SMALL RUNWAYS TO THE PRINT WORK THIS DIVA IS DETERMINED TO MAKE A NAME FOR MYSELF.I AM READY TO WORK WITH NEW MODELS, AGENCIES, PHOTOGRAPHERS, AND MISS CLASSIC BEAUTY. I AM TANESHA JACKSON
