MARION REBER

'My journey took an exciting turn when I moved to Dubai, a place that fueled my passion for entrepreneurship. Immersed in a culture of ambition and innovation, I built a network of inspiring individuals and returned to Switzerland, where I dedicated myself to empowering other models through mentorship and academic teachings 

 In 2024, I achieved two major milestones: publishing my first book and launching my own company and small business. Today, I continue to inspire others to invest in themselves, embrace their uniqueness, and chase their goals with unwavering confidence.

During the pandemic, I traveled to Sierra Leone after spending nearly a year in America. While in Sierra Leone, I dedicated my time to charity work, an experience that deepened my passion for helping children'. 

'My dream is to establish a childcare center that provides orphaned children with the care and support they need to thrive. Although this goal requires significant resources, I am actively working toward making it a reality. 

My background in nursing, which I studied in Switzerland, has given me a unique perspective. It was the first time in my life that I began to see the world through a medical lens, and it greatly influenced how I approach challenges and care for others. This foundation continues to inspire my mission to make a meaningful impact in the lives of those in need.

Being biracial has given me the unique opportunity to experience and embrace two different worlds, cultures, and perspectives. It’s a beautiful journey of connection and learning, but it’s not without its challenges' 

' Growing up in a place that wasn’t always fair to people of color, I couldn’t ignore the subtle and sometimes overt biases and struggles we face.

Switzerland, while creatively enriching, didn’t always offer me the opportunities or recognition I truly deserved. Looking back, I realize that part of that was my own hesitation to take bigger risks.

 I wish I had moved to New York earlier, trusting in my abilities rather than letting fear of failure hold me back.

However, every experience, good or bad, has shaped the person I am today. 

I’ve learned that growth comes from stepping outside your comfort zone and owning your worth, no matter where you are. 

You asked if I turn heads? Yes, I do turn heads when I walk, and I’m proud of it haha! '

'These days, I’ve become more selective about the photographers I work with. It’s not about being unapproachable, but about valuing my time and focusing on meaningful opportunities.

In New York, I landed the opportunity to grace the front cover of their Fashion magazine.

 I have done a collaboration with H&M....that was very exciting.  It was one of a kind. The production, the team, the set – everything was just spot on. 

 I was part of the 'Women Leaders' of the World event and spoke on Stage......what a moment of pure excitement and humility. The event was filled with some individuals who are shaping the world in remarkable ways.' 

'My book is called 'Beyond Beauty' because it explores what lies beyond appearances. It’s about empowering women to work on themselves, overcome challenges, and strive to become the best version of who they are. The book shares advice and insights drawn from my personal experiences and the process of working through my own traumas.
