'Karlie Elizabeth Kloss (born August 3, 1992) is an American fashion model and entrepreneur. At just 17, Vogue Paris declared her one of the \"top 30 models of the 2000s.\" She was a Victoria\'s Secret Angel from 2013 until 2015; she resigned to take a two-year hiatus to study at New York University. Outside of modeling, Kloss has an interest in technology, for which she founded the \"Kode with Klossy\" camp to get young girls interested in STEM fields. Kloss was born in Chicago, Illinois to Tracy (née Fares), a freelance director, and Kurt Kloss, an emergency physician.Her family has Danish, German and Polish roots. She has three sisters. She moved to St. Louis with her family in 1994. Kloss has called her classical ballet training \"a beautiful thing\" that taught her how to move in the modeling world and was a great training ground for her runway walk. Kloss was discovered at a local benefit runway show. In 2006, at the age of 14, Kloss posed for a cover and editorial shoot for the June issue of Scene Magazine in Chicago with photographer David Leslie Anthony, in an editorial spread titled \"Almost Famous\". Elite Chicago (now Factor Women) then forwarded these tear sheets to Elite NY, who then brought Kloss to New York. Kloss is an avid computer programmer. In April 2015, Kloss partnered with Flatiron School and Code.org to offer a scholarship named Kode with Klossy for young girls interested in computer science and software engineering. In collaboration with Momofuku Milk Bar, Kloss created a special recipe called Karlie\'s Kookies sold in DKNY Soho during Fashion\'s Night Out in New York City, with proceeds benefiting hungry children around the world (through FEED Projects). Kloss called it a \"Perfect 10 Kookie\" because for every tin of cookies sold, 10 meals were donated to starving children all over the world.'
