Tell us about yourself.
I was born and raised in sunny San Diego, California. I am 24 years old and currently reside in New York City. I am very passionate about fostering meaningful connections in the communities around me.
What is your biggest dream?
My biggest dream is to constantly live in a posture that brings me beyond myself in every facet of my life. To reach every ounce of my potential and not have anything left to give by the time I finish with this life; I think this is definitely one of those life long dreams that don't truly have a point of arrival.
What does it mean to be your own kind of beautiful?
I think being your own kind of beautiful means authentically being honest with yourself and others about who you really are, not trying to be something your not and owning your whole self without comparison.
Tell us about your modeling experience.
I am grateful to have had various opportunities to work in editorial and lifestyle shoots as well as runway.
What is your dream brand to model for?
My dream brand to model for would definitely be American Apparel. Growing up I have always been absolutely drawn to their stunningly raw brand and inclusivity, I have been a fan for a while as this is a brand that I truly believe in. They've come such a long way and still have so much on the horizon.
How would you describe your fashion style?
I would say that there are three moods to my fashion style: comfortable bohemian chic (I love bell bottoms and flare jeans), denim on denim or black on black emo fitted top with skinny jeans (my typical choice for castings).
How important is self-awareness and confidence to you in your everyday life?
Grounding and freeing is what I would say self-awareness and confidence is to me. We cannot show up for others if we cannot show up for ourselves first, thus self-awareness and confidence are deeply important to my life. When I see myself through a lens of love I can then see others through that same lens.
What makes you beautiful/handsome?
I think what makes me beautiful is my ability to stay true to myself.
What would you say to another girl/guy your age who is struggling with their confidence?
To anyone struggling with their confidence I would say that they are more than enough, perfectly made. I would encourage them to reshape their words and thoughts to life-giving affirmations until they can truly see the beauty of their truth.
