Profile
"I'm a real Survivor because I survived on my own in real life. I took the risk to be independent at a very young age. I survived growing up in the city alone. I became a parent to myself and teenager at the same time."

Jef Gaitan may be sweet, friendly and approachable but her charming demeanor and sweet smile should not be misconstrued as signs of weakness. "I am a fighter and I am courageous when needed", the petite model said in English. At 18, she decided to become truly independent and she stopped studying to focus on her modeling career. When faced with tough challenges, Jef has always resorted to prayers. "I really defend and find comfort in God," Jef said. "Whenever problems come my way, I accept them and look for solutions instead on dwelling on them."
