ABOUT PLUS MODEL KERI ATKINS

Not long after this, Keri was approached by a store manager, asking her to consider plus modeling.

Over four years later, Keri is now signed with Plus10, a division of Theary Sim Inc. Her work has been seen in USA TODAY, POSE MagazineSkorch Magazine, Pretty Pear Bride, Rack PLUS Magazine, Curves and Chaos and many other publications.
