Karlie Kloss, one of the world's most sought-after fashion stars, is also apparently a tech enthusiast. The 24-year-old model, who is currently pursuing a degree at the Gallatin School of Individualized Study of New York University, recently returned from Las Vegas where she attended this year's Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
The Victoria's Secret Model posted an Instagram picture last week with the caption "Vegas baby #CES", Daily Mail reported. Aside from being a supermodel and a student, Kloss is also a business owner, having founded Kode With Klossy. This is a summer camp that allows nearly eighty young women in New York, Los Angeles and St. Louis to join a community of female coding students to learn the fundamentals of programming Ruby.
Kloss has appeared in several ad campaigns and walked a lot of runways, but in an interview with Fast Company, Kloss said that on her free time, she is likely to obsess over code than clothes. "I like knowing how apps and hardware work and why," she said.
According to Kloss, the goal of the program is to introduce computer programming in a fun and collaborative way, and more importantly, to change the stigma that programming is just for boys.
Aside from being coding, Karlie Kloss also loves to bake. She has created a popular line of dessert products with Milk Bar's Christina Tosi. She certainly has a lot of responsibilities, and juggling these obligations can be exhausting.
How does she do all these and still stay on top of things? She said she is motivated by her father. "I am the daughter of an emergency-room physician, and I've watched my dad work 12-hour night shifts for as long as I can remember. It's inspired me and is definitely a part of who I am and the way I live."
