Laura O’Grady

In 2013, then-schoolgirl Laura O’Grady’s path to stardom was paved before her when she signed a contract with a London model agency. At 17 years old, the Castleknock native was noticed by prominent agent Anne Morgan during the Elite model finals two years back. Morgan exclaimed that O’Grady’s knowledge about modeling and fashion was extensive. “This girl was born to model,” she said. Despite not garnering the top spot on the aforementioned contest, O’Grady was offered a place at the Absolute Model Agency in 2011.

After having a stellar start, she remains ecstatic after being in a few projects. With the fast turnaround of models in the industry, O’Grady is optimistic about her future. She also mentioned acquiring a degree in English or Philosophy in an interview.
