Alina Z

Alina Zhytielieva, who is also known as Alina Z, is a Ukrainian model and Instagram star. She has become increasingly popular through pursuing a career as a professional model who is mostly based in Taiwan.

Career

Zhytielieva’s journey in modeling began when she was only 15 years old. Back then, she was told by her mother to move from her home country, Ukraine, to Taiwan to chase a better future.

As Ukraine was involved in a conflict political situation, her mother suggested she and her sister to leave the country. Shortly after, her mother discovered modeling job opportunities in Taiwan and decided to send her daughters there.

Even though Zhytielieva was against the idea of going to a wholly foreign country at first, she eventually succeeded in building a successful career in Taiwan and was grateful for her mother’s decision later.

Over the years, she has been affiliated with various modeling management agencies all over the world, including Dubai- and London-based MMG, LA-based Genetic Models, and Bali-based Castaway Models.

Aside from her modeling career, Zhytielieva also consistently grows her online presence through social media, primarily Instagram, by sharing her modeling content.
