Answers to Q&A
Why did you become a model?
I became a model because I wanted to travel and learn different languages, which I’ve done. While studying acting, I also wanted to experience different clothes and makeup, as it helps me better understand and deepen my characters.
What makes you special?
What makes me special is my diverse background and experience. I recently returned to modeling, bringing with me everything I’ve learned over the years. I love working with passionate and creative people.
I’m also an actress, and I have a background in ballet, as well as yoga. I enjoy movement in all forms and practice sports like tennis and skiing.
I have extensive experience on set, including publicity shoots, films, television, and on-camera work. And I sing as well!
What are you passionate about?
I’m passionate about many things, including art, design, culture, and travel. I also love food, fashion, and creativity, and I’m especially inspired by people who are truly passionate about what they do.
When you are not modeling, what do you do on your day off?
When I’m not modeling, I like to stay active and balanced. I start my day with yoga or Pilates, and often enjoy a coffee with a friend afterward.
I also run a new florist boutique with my husband, where I’m involved in selecting and sourcing new products. In addition, I coach actors and aspiring models, helping them build confidence.
I always make time for myself as well whether it’s cooking, playing tennis, watching movies, or spending quality time with my kids and friends.
how did you become a model?
I was almost 15 and a ballet dancer at the time. I was working in a Canadian designer’s boutique when they organized a fashion show with several designers present. The makeup artist and hairstylist invited me to participate, and I said yes.
A couple of years later, I moved to Montreal for my studies and met the same makeup artist again. He offered me the opportunity to do a photoshoot for my portfolio, and everything happened very quickly after that. I signed with Giovanni Agency and began booking jobs in Madrid and at Milan Fashion Week.
From there, I started traveling extensively almost like taking planes as taxis, while learning three languages and continuing to develop my acting skills.
