My style is a mix of formal and street. Fashion is an expression and manifestation of myself, an insight into who I truly am.

What makes your style stand out?
My style stands out because of my confident self-expression, willingness to take fashion risks, blend of luxury and streetwear, and exemplary use of accessories to emphasize and amplify the look of my outfit. I embody the inspirations of my outfit, whether it is through music, entertainment, or parts of life. I wear clothes loud and proud. I make it stand out and I make it noticeable. I have the ability to combine and mix different pieces, all with different aethestics and still make it work.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream is to walk the runway, to become a model and live in the world of exquisite fashion. The idea of stepping into a designer's artwork, embodying their vision, and feeling the rush of the spotlight fills me with eagerness. I want to work with beautiful clothes every day, transform on the runway, and showcase the artistry that fashion is. To make a living doing something so creative and empowering is the ultimate goal.
What would you do with $20,000?
I would take $10,000 and save it towards my school tuition, ensuring that at least another part of my education fee is covered. The other $10,000 would go to my parents. They are the hardest working people I know, working their butt off everyday to make sure they get both my brother and I through the younger parts of our lives. I would love to show them my eternal gratefulness by just giving them the money to travel for a little while, let them explore the world and just take a break from work.
