Although she has Epidermolysis Bullosa, a genetic skin condition that is terminal and currently without a cure, Lucy has defied stigmas surrounding disabilities by being a full time student, working in London art auction houses and by modeling. Through her modeling, speaking, and writing Lucy hopes to develop the discussion on visible disabilities and how those with disabilities are portrayed by the media.
