Meet Deanne Jean Vanwinkle
My name is Deanne Jean Vanwinkle I
was born on the Navajo Reservation,
raised in Tucson Arizona. I now
reside in Las Vegas Nevada and I’m
loving every minute of it! I work
as a full time Esthetician at a spa
on the Las Vegas strip. I am also a
makeup artist as well. I love what I
do and strive to be the best!
I started modeling 4 years ago,
started in local calendars featuring
Native American woman, when I
resided on the Navajo reservation
for 3 years prior to moving to
Vegas. Ever since then I fell more
and more in love with being in
front of the camera. Even though
modeling is just a hobby I’ve been
fortunate enough to be published in
magazines such as HNS Magazine,
Koncept magazine and featured
on a billboard for a men’s line
in Toronto Canada. Most recent
obsession of mine is giving back. I’m
releasing a 16 month calendar and
10 percent of the proceeds will be
donated to a charity called “Three
Precious
Miracles”
benefiting
Native American Children. Also
recently I teamed up with a men’s
line (Kanati Clothing Company) to
donate around $5000 of new men’s
38
PHOCUS POINT
clothes to a boarding school on my
reservation.
I have quite a bit of followers and
it feels so amazing and I appreciate
each and every one of them. The
sky’s the limit and the people who
believe in me give me the strength
to push myself to go even further.
I plan on continuing to reach and
search for more opportunities
and that’s exciting knowing that
anything is possible. Shout out
to Native Americans across the
country who have dreams. I love you
all and I believe in you as much as
you believe in me. Keep dreaming,
you can do it!
