Style is my freedom, each look channels a chakra’s energy, letting me wear my emotions, colors, and intentions with purpose.

What makes your style stand out?

I don’t just wear clothes, I wear my emotions. My style is rooted in intuition, so each outfit tells a story of how I’m moving through life at that moment. From bold, unapologetic statements to subtle, serene layers, I treat fashion as a canvas for my spirit. It’s not about trends; it’s about resonance. People feel me before they even hear me.

What’s your dream fashion moment?

My dream moment would be a print editorial where I could embody a natural, effortless boho chic aesthetic pieces that flow with movement, fabrics that feel alive, and styling that honors my locs and natural beauty. I envision a spread that celebrates authenticity and organic elegance, where every image feels ethereal, soulful and timeless.

What would you do with $20,000?

I’d invest in creating a Caribbean beachfront wellness space that doubles as a meditation studio, a sanctuary where style, spirituality, and community converge. It wouldn’t just be a property; it would be a healing destination where others can recharge, reconnect, and rediscover themselves. Fashion may tell my story, but wellness is the legacy I want to leave.
