Saphira is 17 years old and from Los Angeles. She creates multiple videos each week on her YouTube channel called SaphiraFashion, where her almost 80,000 subscribers watch videos in which she discusses topics such as bullying, self-harm, suicide, confidence, sexual harassment, sexism, peer pressure, and other teen issues. She is known for her motto: "be happy" and for being honest and real. She promotes and demonstrates positivity in her videos, and stays extremely open with her viewers. She attends regular high school and struggles with many of the same issues that her viewers are facing, so her fans are able to relate and look up to her. Saphira strives to be a better person with every day, so that she can be the best possible role model for her younger viewers. There are so many bad influences in the media, and Saphira combats those with positivity, honesty, and happiness :)
