In the video, which is below, she revealed she has been modeling since she was a child (roughly since the age of 6).
"I've just done little things here and there for local designers and I just feel like my passion, my drive, my work ethic and just my willingness to learn will carry me through this competition," she explained.
Mamé further dished that she believes her "overall presence as a model will definitely" work in her favor throughout the competition.
The hopeful contestant feels as though getting to compete on a cycle of America's Next Top Model "is like a dream come true" since she has always desired to be a model.
She is hoping to learn and grow throughout this competition in terms of working "the camera better."
"I feel like as a model, you should be just willing to always learn new tricks, always learn how to do more and be better," she divulged, adding, "I want to be just like Tyra Banks. I want to get in front of any camera and just turn it on."
America's Next Top Model returns to The CW this summer on Aug. 5 at 8 p.m. ET for Cycle 22.
