It all started three years ago, when already retired from her profession as a nurse, her son decided to promote his mother's childhood dream of becoming a model, and enrolled in a modeling academy. "I thought that being a model was just walking, but there are many classes," she shared with the program Today (Telemundo) the septuagenarian mannequin.
After changing her image and taking catwalk, photography and body expression classes, the Valle del Cauca has conquered the catwalks of Cali and Colombia, and triumphs as a catalog model. "I want to inspire people that no matter how old you are, if you have had a dream, fight for it and you will achieve it."

In addition to loving fashion as an art and appreciating that designers share her creations with models, within her new profession, Morales is passionate about catwalking. “I have participated in different catwalks. The first one was very nervous, my heart wanted to jump out, but I gained confidence and today I feel calmer to perform. I love the runway."
In her long existence, in addition to working as a professional nurse, she has been a mother, she has dedicated herself to painting, dancing tango, doing social work and now a model. We hope that soon she can fulfill her next dream, which is to get on the catwalk in Milan.
