STAR DREAM GIRL: Karen Jane Grupp

Being beautiful is not all about looks. The total package also includes intelligence

Twenty-three-year-old Eurasian beauty Karen Jane Grupp is a cut above the rest.

Standing 5’7" 1/2-tall, Karen is a Psychology and Marketing graduate of Santa Clara University in California. This daughter of German Gunther Grupp, an engineer, and the former Merla Verdeflor, a Filipina entrepreneur, is fascinated by people and their peculiarities. Karen is busy modeling for print ads and TV and doing fashion editorials. She’s also a freelance marketing consultant and a part of Fatally Femme Production – an outfit that produces events – with friends Amanda Griffin, Bianca Zobel and Celine Gabriel

Karen, an idealistic and romantic person, plans to do modeling stints in Singapore, produce great events and go to Europe for a vacation. Karen speaks German, French, English and Filipino. She says that traveling, swimming, reading and listening to music are perfect ways to nourish one’s soul

Among her interests, it’s traveling that she loves most. "It gives me the chance to see different cultures and ways of life. I also see different forms of beauty, and I’m able to appreciate beauty even in the most mundane things." – Jerry Donato
