Summary
Yumi Nu is a model and singer-songwriter who recently graced the cover of Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Issue, becoming the first plus-size model of Asian descent to do so!! Our hearts swell when we think about all the self-love and kindness she shows herself. We talk to Yumi about what helped her embrace her beauty, reclaiming her Asian identity later in life, and the embarrassment of butt-scooting into Ubers.
