Ta'kasha Holmes is a 28 year old single mother of two; Kamare' (9) and Andricus II (7). She called them "Mi Fav 2." Born and raised in West Point, MS, but now resides in Louisiana. She is the daughter of Marilyn J. Holmes. She grew up with her older sister, Artashia, and younger brother, Jeremy.
Ta'kasha is a very outgoing and well spoken christian. She takes pride in anything she do. She is currently working as a substitute teacher and is also continuing her education, working towards a degree in Early Elementary Education. Her hobbies include praise dancing, traveling, softball, and spending time with family. She devotes a lot of her time to the Bid Sister Program, inspiring and motivating this growing generation. She is a motivational speaker and youth advocate. She states, "The children are our future." Ta'kasha has a heart for helping. Her reason for her being so devoted is because of a life tragedy she experienced at such an early age. At only seventeen she discovered her mother had passed. She was heartbroken. Devastated but at that moment she felt as if she was forced to grow up. "No daughter should have to ever experience that kind of pain, but it was all in God's plan," states Ta'kasha. A year later Ta'kasha built and introduced her platform, A Devastated Daughter with a Mother's Heart. Her main focus was from then on to reach out to the youth and encourage and motivate them to keep striving, and never give up.
Fashion has always been her passion. "My aunt always said that I stayed the center of attention," says Ta'kasha. Growing up in poverty, she wasn't really introduced to those things in which she loved so she continued to only dream.
At the age age of eighteen, she stepped out on faith and went to an America's Next Top Model audition. Being there alone shwvlet it discourage her, but she never gave up. She continued her journey as a freelance model, promoting herself in local fashion shows and charity events. She was introduced to more and began modeling hair, print, promo, fashion and commercial.
In 2015, she was casted and landed her first major in "My Crazy Family" stageplay, an Alexander "The Great" Production.
In that same year she was nominated and crowned Ms. Clay County, Heart of the USA.
June 2016, Ta'kasha was chosen to model with Preview Models, a new young and edgy modeling agency. With that company she gained a great deal of exposure and celebrity training. She became apart of a three day production in Los Angles, California, where she had the opportunity to meet with many casting directors, talent managers, and agents. In CA l, Ta'kasha was pleased to work alongside Anerica's Next Top Model, Brittney Sharaun and Premiere Acting Coach, Ryan Glasgow.
Today, Ta'kasha works as an elite model with a very talented agency, Mississippi Elegance. Mississippi Elegance was founded by Chasty Harris and is managed by Dub Citi Managements.
Not afraid to take risks, Ta'kasha believes in stepping out on faith. " I am very well pleased and humble with my accomplishments. You never know what God has planned," stated Ta'kasha
