Born in 1992, in the Dominican Republic, Rose was disovered  when approached by a man while she was playing volleyball. Thinking the man was crazy, she ran away from him, but he insisted on talking to the 13-year-old because he said she had the potential to become a model. The man was actualy Sandro Guzman founder of Ossygeno Model Management. He gave Rose her card, but she did not call until her aunt spotted him on a TV a year later. She has gone on to appear on the cover of French Vogue, Arise, V & i-D & in editorials for American, Italian & Teen Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Numéro, & W. She has also appeared in ads for Barney's & Nars Cosmetics.

Ok where do I start, first of all she is ridiculously gorgeous with those lips and that skin, she has the perfect face shape, but I think what I love the most is the shape of her eyes they are beautiful, her face to me is so perfect and of course I can’t talk about Rose without mentioning her hair. Such a stunning model.

I first really took notice of Rose when I saw 'Profil De Grace' editorial in the December 2009 issue of French Vogue. Her short hair & simplistic but outstanding features just caught my eyes. She looked beautiful and gave us 90% of that bad ass Grace Jones vibe and I only say 90% because I don’t think anyone can ever give us 100% of Grace Jones apart from Grace Jones. I also liked this editorial because it reminded us that Grace Jones is the original that many celebrities copy their style from.
