Since then, she has modelled for high-end brands including Chanel, Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Amato Couture, Van Clef, Moschino, and Louis Vuitton, among others.

As a young adult, Ayan already had a successful job under her belt. She was employed by Coca-Cola while she was a teenager, and she created an ad for the brand aimed at young people in Kenya. Once she arrived in Brazil, her cousin in Sweden gave her a magazine, and she knew she wanted to pursue a career in modelling and the fashion industry. After making several contacts, she landed her first jobs with Brazilian promotion firms. She began her career as a model in Brazil, and later moved to New York, USA.
