Answers to Q&A
What INSPIRED you to become a model?
Growing up, people would tell me I should model, but I never seriously acted on it. I’ve always been very creative and interested in the world of fashion, music, culture, and art. I think the most interesting people and exciting things happen within that world. So, when I had someone unofficially reach out to me through Instagram and ask me if I could model for their brand, it seemed like a great opportunity. The other model shooting for the brand told me I could model “for real.” He was signed with Lizbell and scouted me. Within days of applying, I was signed and lined up for my first shoot. It’s crazy thinking back because I had no idea how much would come from that one message.
What are you most excited about when it comes to modeling?
I'm excited about the future. I have my whole life ahead of me, and I’ve just been met with this life-changing opportunity to be a part of such a unique industry. It's such a privilege to be able to experience the world through modeling, and I cannot wait to build connections, travel, and meet amazing people in the process.
Can you share with us some advice you have for models wanting to get into the industry?
I’m learning that although looks play a role in the success of a model, charisma and carrying yourself with confidence can be just as valuable. Having a strong and appealing persona will go a long way. I’ve noticed that potential follows closely behind confidence. And definitely don't forget your manners, politeness is key!
share a fun fact about yourself!
I'm super spontaneous, and I love doing things that break routine. Plus, I love getting out of the house and people-watching. I constantly end up on random, unnecessary side quests at all hours of the day. I've always jumped at any chance to explore new things. It feels like an opportunity to become more interesting, and I never know when I’ll come across a great experience or walk away with a story to tell.
