The 20-Year-Old Who's 3ft 1 | Shake My Beauty

DASHA, 20, from Pennsylvania, is 3ft1 inches tall. Her short stature, even by little person standards, makes that extra inch important. The 20-year-old student was diagnosed with a form of dwarfism known as Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia (SED) and lives with her parents, Rob and Terri who are also both little people (mom Terri is a foot taller than Dasha and has Kniest Syndrome and dad Rob, is 4ft6 and has Achondroplasia). For Dasha, being 3ft1 is a part of her identity and she wouldn't have it any other way. She started a podcast addressing what it means to be born with dwarfism and has even recorded episodes with her mother. She also records videos on TikTok about life as a little person.
