Berkley Light: A new star in the world of modeling
Wright has been making waves in the modeling industry since it was discovered in 2023 through an SI swimsuit swim search open casting call.

Accepting confidence and self-love
Beyond the glamour and charm of her modeling career, Wright has spoken out about her journey to self-love and self-confidence. She believes in the SI swimsuit sisterhood who helped her get out of her shell and embrace the beauty of nature.
“One of the hardest things… For women everywhere, it’s about loving ourselves as we love others,” Wright shared previously. “If you embrace your self-love, you can embrace your inner beauty and infuse it with that sparkle.”

She admitted that her confidence was an ongoing job. “I used to feel like it had to be done to make fake eyelashes, spray tongues and my hair and makeup look beautiful,” she said. “But now, my favorite version is tying my hair, putting on scalpels, putting on makeup, and waking up in sweatpants. When I feel the most relaxed and like myself, that’s when I feel the most confident.”

A multi-character country
Wright’s resume is impressive. In addition to modeling and working in high tech, she spent five seasons as a cheerleader for the Denver Broncos and was team captain last season. She has also dedicated her time to a variety of community organizations, including Colorado Children’s Hospital, the Boys and Girls Club in Denver, Dare To Cheer, and junior Denver Broncos cheerleaders.
In addition to that, she is a book lover and recently launched Bookin’, a social media video blog where she shares her latest reads. Throughout her diverse career, Wright continues to encourage young women to pursue their passion without restrictions.
A new romance on the horizon?
Wright may soon be on the market as fans picked up hints for a budding romance with Buffalo Bills punter Sam Martin. Speculation began after it was discovered at a Bills game in January, when Martin’s name and numbers were wearing a varsity jacket on his back.
The two were first linked when they were photographed together at a Bills Holiday Party in December. A month ago, during a SI swimsuit event at Beverly Hills, Wright teased a new NFL romance, saying, “We’re still rooting for the Broncos… but there’s another team because the boy is involved. It’s an East Coast team, but I’m not going to say (it).”
Neither Wright nor Martin officially confirm their relationship, but her latest soft launch brings fans to cheer on the couple.
