Here is Emerly Drye’s BIO, from Emerly:
**Emerly Drye’s BIO**
My name is Emerly Drye. I was born in Cebu, Philippines and moved to the USA in May of 1998. I became a US citizen in 2003 and became interested in the beauty industry, specifically in nails and hair.
Bio from Emerly Drye
In early 1999, I quit working for other salons and started my own business, MJF Nails & Spa located in My Salon Suites, in Manassas, Virginia. I’m licensed both as a nail technician and instructor.
I’ve been doing modeling going on four years now, and have walked the runway in shows for Randhawa Brands Hi-Tech Moda, Neal’s Ensembles, Grace Steadfast, The Bureau, the 2024 Heritage People’s Ball, the FACC Fashion Festival for Filipino American Cancer Care, and the Single in the City event held at the Crown and Crow in Washington, DC.
I not only walk the runways but assist with make-up and hair for the modeling crews. I’ve also worked with Mrs. D.C. 2020, Jeananne Roberts, as her personal assistant.
