Ms. Wheelchair NY Goes Global with Telemundo 47

Pioneering NYFW Runway Model Profiled as "Woman of Today"



"Danielle Sheypuk has become an icon in the New York Fashion World and a symbol of hope and inspiration for a whole host of people around the globe."

    NEW YORK, NY, November 17, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Danielle Sheypuk, a pioneering NYC psychologist, commentator, fashion model, and advocate on behalf of disabled persons, who "worked the runway" during both February and September New York Fashion Week (NYFW), will be the focus of a major profile by Nadia Torres, who anchors the Mujer de Hoy (Woman of Today) series for NBC Universal's Telemundo 47 network.

The Spanish-language television station is seen by many millions throughout the US and Latin America. The segment will be aired during Telemundo's Noticiero 47 news broadcasts, at 6:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 19, 2014.

Sheypuk will be featured along with N.J.-based fashion designer India Vazquez, for whom Sheypuk modeled at September NYFW, as well as Miami-based model Alexandra Santibanez, who serves as spokesmodel for the Colours line of fashion-design wheelchairs.

The highlight of the segment is a dual fashion shoot featuring both Sheypuk and Santibanez in the heart of New York City's Grand Central Station, working with rising Ecuadorian fashion photographer Enriques Aviles.

During September NYFW, Sheypuk, who is wheelchair-dependent, modeled a selection from Vazquez's Blinged Out By India and Latrodectus urban-influenced lines of clothing, combined with items from the designer's collection of playful and edgy jewelry and accessories.

"Danielle has become an icon in the New York Fashion World and a symbol of hope and inspiration for a whole host of people around the globe," said Jennifer Esposito, associate for marketing at Tranquility49 PR. "This multifaceted profile by the wonderful Nadia Torres will introduce Danielle, India and Alexa to a whole new audience in the Spanish-speaking world."

The former Ms. Wheelchair New York 2012, Danielle Sheypuk broke major fashion barriers at NYFW in February 2014, when she modeled a selection of clothing on the runway from Carrie Hammer's collection of fashions for professional women. Sheypuk is a licensed clinical psychologist who has also covered NYFW events as a columnist and editorial board member for SheKnows, a major online magazine for women. In February 2015 she will debut an advice column for eParent magazine.
