Early life

Sepulveda was born in the Dominican Republic. At age five, she moved to the United States with her mother and older sister .^[3]^[4] In 2003, during her senior year of high school, she earned a sports scholarship to attend the University of Massachusetts and New York state's Schloss Award for girls' lacrosse.^[5]^[6]

Sepulveda earned a bachelor's degree in management from the Isenberg School of Management while playing on the school's lacrosse team. She was the seventh-highest goal scorer in the team's history.^[7]

Sepulveda told the New York Post that, after earning her MBA, she decided to work in law enforcement, not finance, because she thought she would be better able to help people in law enforcement.^[4]

Career

In mid-2013, a friend invited Sepulveda to model in a runway fashion show for their lingerie company. Sepulveda accepted, and began modeling lingerie and swimwear in her time off.^[4]

In 2013, Sepulveda appeared in a video intended to introduce, and secure funding, for a reality TV show called America's Next Great Trainer.^[8] In 2014, Muscle and Fitness magazine chose Sepulveda as one of the women in a photo profile entitled "America's hot girls of the gym".^[9] The magazine Inside Fitness profiled her in October 2015.^[2] By February 2017, Sepulveda had 110,000 followers on Instagram.^[3]

Volunteering

In 2019 Sepulveda played a role in a "Dream Prom Boutique", which provided free beautiful outfits for students at the high school from which she graduated.^[18] The Long Island Herald's reporting showed Sepulveda helping students pick out outfits.
