Former Victoria's Secret model Lyndsey Scott has revealed that she leads a double-life, walking the runway by day and working as a computer programmer by night.
The U.S.-born 29-year-old has walked in runway shows for Prada and Louis Vuitton, while simultaneously developing seven phone apps – two of which have been picked up by Apple.
A self-proclaimed ‘nerd’, Ms Scott says that she defies many modeling stereotypes and has ‘definitely had a few agencies tell me I need to be cooler,’ she told PandoDaily.
That same year, she walked the Victoria’s Secret runway in the show’s PINK segment and was also cast in presentations by Prada and Louis Vuitton.
As her brother Matthew Scott told the site: ‘If I had to liken her to someone, I’d say she’s like Gisele Bundchen mixed with Bill Gates. I can’t imagine those two combined, but if they did, it would probably by Lyndsey.’
Ms Scott says that she is no stranger to her confounding position within the fashion and computer industries.
Rather than cross-promoting her life as a model while working as a programmer, and her programming work while she models, Ms Scott instead prefers to keep mum about her dual occupations.
