Model: Carina Castagna
A billboard that sits just above Ripley’s Believe It Or Not located at Times Square is where Carina Castagna’s image flashed in neon lights during the evening hours on a clear, cool October evening. She appeared in a photograph entitled “Skate New York” produced by
OOhMy Productions, and photographed by Derek Goffphine.
Carina was born in the mountains of NJ where her life has been filled with enjoying the outdoors; with activities like: hiking, boating, horse back riding, and snowboarding. She is a true natures “wild child” - loving the outdoors and enjoying all that it has to offer.
Carina began to pursue modeling and acting at the age of nine. Her acting took off when she debuted in a featured, speaking role in a Bollywood movie titled: “English Vinglish” . This movie gave her the opportunity to work side by side with the famous and recently deceased Bollywood Star “Sridevi”.
Carina went to Toronto for the premiere of the movie and to walk the red carpet during the TIFF Awards. She sat in the theater to watch the movie premiere along with other cast members. It was quite a sight to see her name flash across the screen at the end of the film as the credits rolled.
Quite an accomplishment for a child of 13 years old.
As Carina grew up, so did her height. Standing a commanding 5’10” Carina is one of those rare models that captivate you upon first glance. When she hits the runway she commands attention. Currently an independent fashion model Carina has walked the runways in NYFW for the past 4 years as well as walking for Miami SWIM WEEK.

Carina brings versatility, and high positive energy to all that she does. This distinguishes Carina as a genuine force that’s non-stoppable.
