"I noticed not just her good looks, but even though it might sound strange, her inner energy. This was the impression Stane Jerko had of Melania when he discovered her at a fashion show."
"By 1992, at the age of twenty-two, I was a dedicated architecture student and a successful part-time model. This statement reflects Melania's early achievements before fully committing to modeling."
Melania Trump was born Melanija Knavs in Slovenia on April 26, 1970. Her parents were involved in the automotive and textile industries. Discovered by photographer Stane Jerko at a fashion show in 1987, she began her modeling career after initially being hesitant. By 1992, she was a successful model and architecture student. She later chose modeling over architecture, changing her name to Melania Knauss. The details surrounding her name change and decision-making process are not elaborated upon in her memoir.
