Barbizon Grad Madison Mills in Charlotte Observer

Barbizon graduate Madison Mills was featured in the Charlotte Observer's 'South Charlotte News' this week.  Madison was profiled because of her work on the runway and the experience she has gained because of modeling.

"After a second show with Forever 21, Maddie's parents, Amy and Mark Mills, decided to enroll her in Barbizon - a modeling school with a Charlotte location.

"We actually put her in Barbizon to help boost her confidence level," said Amy Mills, 43."

Congratulations Madison!
