Yoalah Brinson
Yoalah Brinson was born on January 12,1994 at the Soroka Medical Center Hospital in Beersheba, Israel. She was raised in Dimona. Israel (also known as The Holy Land or The Land Of Milk and Honey} on HaAliya street in a small community built by the first African Hebrew Israelites who were brought to Israel by their founder and spiritual leader Ben Ammi Ben-Israel. Yoalah was raised in a traditional Hebrew Israelite household. She and her family attended Sabbith Service and celebrated Hebrew Israelite holidays and went to school at their community school Ahkvah that their community built for their kids in Dimona. Her faith and Israelite identity remained important to her into adulthood. After Yoalah went to college for web & graphics design at a privately owned for-profit art school in San Francisco, California, called The Academy of Art University, formerly known as the Academy of Art College in 2015. Yoalah went back to modeling and creating her own 90's clothing line in 2018 becoming the CEO of Back To The 90's company that has 90's style, tv shows, movies and cartoons on clothing, accessories, event and party favors. Yoalah also writes music, act in Israeli tv shows, commercials and fashion projects. After she graduated out of high school at 16 years old, the middle eastern queen has loved fashion for as long as she can remember. In 2023 Yoalah was scouted and signed by Gamut Management, Runway of Dreams, MAVN Models Management and Models Direct, becoming the first disabled, Black, Middle Eastern model to be represented by a major agency. Now Yoalah has quickly become one of fashion's freshest faces, posing in campaigns for Moschino, Collina Strada, and Sephora, among others (she even made a starry cameo in Miley Cyrus's slightly NSFW 2019 music video for her single, "Mother's Daughter"). But Yoalah's true breakthrough moment came when she made her New York Fashion Week debut in Moschino's Spring show, also making history as the first model in a wheelchair to grace the runway for a big fashion house. Yoalah represents the next generation intent on moving the needle. Outspoken, impassioned and a self-confessed "chatterbox", the Middle Eastern model is set on making the fashion world more inclusive, from pushing diversity in the industry at the recent Fashion Awards, to changing the narrative around Middle Easterns. Born in war-torn Israel, Yoalah spent her early years in Dimona, Israel first Hebrew Israelite, before moving to America at the age of eighteen. Her and her mother set up home in Memphis,TN, where her mother's siblings, relatives, mother and old high school friends still live. Yoalah adjusted to the American lifestyle: learning English, graphic art, digital art and fashion. Yoalah is showing a whole new generation, particularly speaking to those among the middle eastern, black and disabled communities, that they too can have a seat at the table or a turn on the runway. Yoalah is currently focused on writing & modeling and has recently published her first book "So Much Unsaid: Words From A Middle Eastern Queen" and a horror film called "The Return Of Soraya M: A Story Of Revenge" about Two Iranian women desperate for answers about the cruel and inhumane punishment death of their mother. After the fall of the last Shah and the end of the monarchy, Iran is on the brink of a new era. Yoalah is a beautiful, Hebrew Israelite culture Middle Eastern socialist and takes place in a very important part of marketing. Widely known for her features in many magazines Yoalah has experiences that spans nearly every scope of the entertainment industry. With a strong work ethic, broad appeal and beauty, her ability to touch Hebrew and English speaking audiences are limitless. Dedicated and loyal to her fans and followers across worldwide. She has secured a plethora of award wins and nominations, as well as being featured on outlets such as Brainz Magazine, Swag Magazine, Voyage LA, TMZ, Canvas Rebel, NBC News, Essence, Jet Magazine, E! News, The View, etc. She currently resides in Woodland Hills, California.
