Answers to Q&A

What INSPIRED you to become a model?

I’ve been obsessed with modeling since I was a kid. I was always the tall, slightly awkward one in school, taller than all the boys, but later I realized that what felt awkward then is a huge advantage in this industry. A friend passed along Janelle’s contact, and things moved fast from there. She signed me almost right away. I’ve been with Morgan since 2022, and it’s been the best decision.

What are you most excited about when it comes to modeling?

I get most excited when I know I’m going into a set full of cool, creative people. I always love meeting other models, artists, and photographers. We usually hit it off right away! There are so many shared experiences, and I’m always surprised by how many are also students or doing amazing things outside the industry. It’s honestly so inspiring, and it’s a big part of what keeps me bringing an upbeat energy to every set.

Can you share with us some advice you have for models wanting to get into the industry?

My biggest advice for future models or anyone new to the industry is to never take constructive criticism or rejection personally. Every casting or audition comes with a chance of booking the job, never a guarantee, so it helps to remember that sometimes an agency isn’t looking for your specific look, or maybe the brand just worked with someone similar. Rejection is part of the industry, and it can be tough on your confidence. While modeling has given me so much confidence, I’ve learned not to let it depend on other people’s decisions. Believe in yourself, understand that you won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, and trust that the right opportunities will come in time. It always works out!

share a fun fact about yourself!

A fun fact about me is that I’m a big golf lover. I grew up playing with my dad at our golf club, and now it’s one of my favorite ways to get outside in the summer. I’d love to model for a golf brand someday, that’s definitely a dream of mine.
