Measuring a mere 5' 7?", Vanessa is undoubtedly a petite model, but that hasn't eclipsed her rising star or hampered the consolidation of her international career. Rarely does one encounter a career as longstanding as hers in this short-lived occupation. Born under the strong sign of Capricorn, Vanessa started modeling when she was just ten years old. Later, at the age of 17, she left Spain for Paris where a local modeling agency thought her figure and characteristics would do well in the City of Lights. The day after she arrived, she was rushed to London to shoot a campaign for Pepe Jeans. After that she began to work internationally. She lived in Paris for three years, but always returning to Spain, because her family lived, and still does, in Barcelona. Vanessa currently lives in New York with her boyfriend, also model, Jordi Rosell?.
