Joan Smalls is one of the world's highest paid supermodels and the first Latina face of Estee Lauder.
, Smalls fondly recalls her days playing and working on her family farm, which included everything from cows to pigs to peacocks. “The small-town life helped me to stay grounded and to stay focused, and not be caught off guard because things are happening,” she says. “We just have such a chill mentality about everything.
”"I always had crazy, curly hair up in a bun, messy, running up and down, sweaty,” she said. “I always remember my mom saying she wanted a son, so I basically filled that position, like being outside and always having dirt underneath my nails. I was never afraid of getting dirty and grimy."My dad would always say, ‘You know, you need your sheepskin,’ so I went to college and I graduated in two years, magna cum laude. I have a bachelor's in psychology.I wanted to be a veterinarian.
