Mama Cax
Mama Cax, born Cacsmy Brutus, is a 29 year old Haitian-American Blogger, Advocate, Motivational Speaker and Model represented by JAG Models. She was 14 years old when she was diagnosed with bone and lung cancer. Eventually, she lost her right leg when it was amputated at the hip. Mama Cax has studied in NY, France, Tunis & Rome. She holds both a B.A & M.A in International Studies. In September 2016, under the Obama Administration, she was invited to the White House to walk in the first ever White house Fashion show. The event was a celebration of inclusive design, assistive technology, and prosthetics. Mama Cax uses social media as a platform to talk about body positivity, but most importantly, to dismantle the image of what people with disabilities should be or look like. Her innovative prosthetic leg and message of self-love has landed her features in magazine like TeenVogue, Cosmopolitan, Essence Magazine, and Glamour.
