What makes your style stand out?

The element of surprise! I include items that most people wouldn't expect like a vintage broach on a leather jacket, a strand of pearls with a denim jacket and of course, bling! I'm most known for my love of bling, sequin and beaded gowns! My hair usually stands out because I have so much of it, so I go even bigger and add faux diamond hair accessories whenever possible!

What’s your dream fashion moment?

Most definitely to own an authentic Versace gown! It would be a dream come true to meet Donatella and tell her thank you and give her a big hug. I think people don't realize how much Gianni gave of himself to the fashion industry, he was truly a magical, sweet soul that inspired me to be bold and not be afraid to express myself through my fashion choices.

What would you do with $20,000?

My mom has been my biggest supporter, as a single mom, she always found a way to afford school clothes and pageant gowns for me, so I would like to be able to take her to Europe to visit all the art galleries that she loves. I would invest to further my education so that in the near future, I will have the means to give back to my community by assisting youth charities that protect and provide for those most vulnerable in society.
