What makes your style stand out?

My main style is inspired by early 2000s Avril Lavigne, but there are so many looks I adore. Sometimes I add some horror aspects to my look, other times I try drag-inspired fashion, and sometimes I even add traditional Indian jewelry or makeup to help me connect with my culture. Each look is more unique than the last, and I love experimenting with all kinds of styles.

What’s your dream fashion moment?

In all honesty, I never imagined modeling or doing anything of the sort. That has never been a dream of mine. My dream is to create change in the world, big or small. No matter what I end up doing with my life, that's all I will ever want. As long as I have a positive impact, I will consider myself "successful". By taking part in this, I will hopefully have that impact, since people who look like me are never on the covers of magazines. That representation is needed more than ever nowadays.

What would you do with $20,000?

I would use the money to move out of my mother's place and get proper healthcare. Right now, I am unable to work because of a chronic illness, and I require a mobility aid to move around for the most part. This money would be life changing for me, as right now, I am unable to access the resources I need to survive and thrive. I would finally be able to live the life I want and deserve.
