Early life
Pack was born and raised in Palos Verdes, California. She currently lives in Newport Beach, California and attended the University of California, Irvine,[5] where she was on the Dean's List.[4] In 2012 Pack interned at Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian and hoped to go to medical school to become an OBGYN.[3]
In 2005, Pack appeared in an episode of The Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan.
America's Next Top Model
At the age of 19, Pack was selected as a finalist for cycle 12 of America's Next Top Model. During her time in the competition, she won a runway challenge and had two second callouts. She also did not receive a makeover because host Tyra Banks believed she looked modelesque as she was.
Pack was the eighth contestant eliminated from the competition and the first to be eliminated abroad in Sao Paulo, Brazil after a photo shoot where the contestants emulated the late Carmen Miranda. Judges Miss J. Alexander and Fernanda Motta believed that she looked "exhausted" and that "the sparkle was missing" in Pack's photo, despite Pack's insistence that Jay Manuel was complimentary of her photos.[6]
Following her elimination from America's Next Top Model, Pack signed to Ford Models in Los Angeles and is currently signed with NEXT Model Management in Miami.[2] She has modeled for Jockey International and BL!SSS magazine. She has also walked for Billabong and Dona Daneshi. In 2015, she was featured in ads for Guess.
Miss California USA
Pack participated in the Miss California USA pageant as "Miss Hoag Hospital",[7] where she was interning while attending University of California, Irvine. Despite never having participated in any previous beauty pageants, Pack won the title and was crowned by outgoing titleholder (and Miss Teen USA 2006) Katie Blair.[5] She competed in the Miss USA 2012 competition on June 3, 2012 in Las Vegas, Nevada, and failed to place, ending California's seven-year streak of consecutive placements in Miss USA, from 2005 through 2011.
Personal life
In September 2017, Pack became engaged to boyfriend, actor Aaron O'Connell.[8] On July 21, 2018, Natalie and Aaron O'Connell were married in Italy.[9]
Real estate career
In April 2018 she announced on Twitter and Instagram that she had passed her real estate exam and was looking forward to working with her father in that field,[10] and by 2019 her biographies on both sites gave prominent mention to their Keller Williams affiliated brokerage,"The Pack Team".[11]
