Camylle A.E. Jones is a multifaceted individual, blending the worlds of academia and modeling. A model by both appearance and trade, she is also an academic by training, currently pursuing her studies as a full-time student at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa. Majoring in biological engineering and political science, Camylle has long known that her future lies in the medical field, with aspirations to become a cardiothoracic surgeon.

Born and raised on the East Coast, Camylle made the bold decision to study nearly 5,000 miles away from home, seeking the chance to experience a broader view of the world. This journey also played a role in her decision to begin modeling. Shy as a child, she found that fashion became her primary means of self-expression. Growing up, she watched her mother prepare her Sunday Best for church each week and observed the meticulous care with which her father readied his Nordstrom suits for work. These moments instilled in her the belief that fashion is not only a form of self-expression but also an integral part of identity. She began to understand how what one wears speaks volumes before any words are ever spoken—how the fashion seen on runways and billboards influences what people wear in boardrooms and on the streets.

For Camylle, modeling became a natural path, particularly once she recognized the power it held to represent people like herself. As an Afro-Indigenous woman, she is deeply passionate about ensuring that everyone can see themselves reflected in the art and culture they consume. Fashion, to her, is a vital part of this representation.

When it comes to hobbies, Camylle is a self-proclaimed "total nerd." She makes the most of her limited free time by indulging in music, singing, and reading a diverse range of materials—from political theory and romance novels to dictionaries. Her first job was at a bookstore, a role that only deepened her love for literature. In addition to her intellectual pursuits, Camylle is also dedicated to her physical well-being. She is a committed gym-goer who enjoys lifting weights and working out. She even celebrated her birthday by running her first 10k and is now preparing to train for a half-marathon as her next fitness goal.
