Twin models, actresses, entrepreneurs and influencers Ava and Leah Clements have been hard at work in the industry since they were just 7 years old, and they don‘t show signs of stopping anytime soon.
As models, they‘ve worked with everyone from Nike and Disney to Mattel, and they‘re also fashion entrepreneurs in their own right, working on major collabs with Bloomingdales, Nordstrom, Macy‘s and Levi‘s, and even running their own clothing brand, KAVEAH. The twins also have more than 1.9 million followers on Instagram, but in addition to being stars, they‘re also known for using their platform to help people in need—and even save lives. Ava and Leah may be young, but we‘re majorly inspired by them, and here‘s everything they shared about themselves as our latest Woman Crush Wednesdays.

6. Leah wishes that she would have learned that honesty is always the best policy—even when the truth isn‘t easy to share.

8. Leah adores her three dogs, and dogs are probably her favorite animal.
“I have a miniature poodle named Indi, a little golden Cavadoodle named Kai and a mini golden doodle named Sadi—who turned out to be not so little after all (she‘s 40 lbs!).“
-Leah Clements

10. If Leah weren‘t a model, influencer and entrepreneur, she‘d probably want to be a volleyball coach.
“My grandpa was a golf pro and basketball coach and my dad is a swim coach, and they always talk about how they love what they do. I think it could be fun to be a coach, and right now, I‘ve been having a lot of fun playing volleyball. So I think being a volleyball coach could be a really fun dream job.“

11. Above everything else, Ava enjoys helping others.
“It makes me happy when I see other people happy, and I am really grateful to be in a position where I can use my platform to help others. One of the cool things we were able to do a few years ago was partner with Nail and Bone to sell nail polish. Our cousin Shane has spinal muscular atrophy, so we donated all of the proceeds from the nail polish sales to cure SMA to help him and others that suffer from the disease.“
-Ava Clements
12. And Leah loves helping people just as much!
“It really makes me happy when I can use my platform to help other people. Like when my dad had blood cancer, we raised awareness and encouraged people to swab their cheeks to see if they could be a match for him. Even though my dad‘s brother ended up being the best match for my dad, four other lives were saved from the drives we held because they were a life-saving match for someone else.“
