Tell us about yourself
I was born in West Palm Beach Florida but moved out to Vegas when I was 13. I’m currently 21 years old, attending college for theatre arts and working part time modeling.
What is your biggest dream?
My biggest dream would have to be achieving lifelong happiness and being able to provide for myself independently. Being the strongest woman I can be and generating positivity wherever I go.
What does it mean to be your own kind of beautiful?
Believing in and trusting in yourself no matter what others may think. Bringing happiness from within and knowing that you can be the very best version of yourself just through love and acceptance.
Tell us about your modeling experience.
I’m a published print model in Fèroce magazine as well as for the hair product line Coté in Germany. I had the honor of being sculpted by artist Rodrigo Lara. I’ve worked with all sorts of amazing stylists, artists, and designers. I fell into modeling on sort of an accident, but I’ve loved being apart of the community ever since my first shoot.
What is your dream brand to model for?
I’d be lying if I said I’ve never dreamt of walking runway for Victoria’s Secret haha!
How would you describe your fashion style?
Classy but also a bit edgy and eccentric.
How important is self-awareness and confidence to you in your everyday life?
Working on my inner self confidence was an incredibly daunting task because for a while I didn’t think very highly of myself. I have to tell myself every day that I am enough and that I am worth it, no matter what others may think because it is so important to hold yourself with the highest and utmost respect. Honestly at times still I don’t always feel that way, but getting up every morning begins a new day and you can change your life in just that time. It’s all about mindset.
What makes you beautiful/handsome?
I think my ability to see light in all situations, my sense of humor, and my love of other people.
What would you say to another girl/guy your age who is struggling with their confidence?
That there is no one who will ever be exactly as you are. That no matter what, you are extremely valuable to this world and can do extraordinary things with your life. Being friends with the person in the mirror is one of the most satisfying experiences you can accomplish. I know it can be difficult, but in the long run it’s worth it because you deserve to have a happy life. We are all beautiful.
