Style is mood music. Some days I’m untamed; other days, I crave that refined power. That contrast is my style.
What makes your style stand out?
self-expression is freedom. It’s not about being understood by everyone. Some days my style screams rebellion a little ripped denim, skater energy, that raw edge that reminds me where I came from. Other days, I slip into something sleek and sophisticated, and it’s like I’m stepping into my next evolution. I evolve naturally, not for approval. The moment you start chasing what everyone else is doing, you lose the magic that makes you, you.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream moment isn’t just about what I’m wearing — it’s about the energy. It’s that instant when the lights hit, the music drops, and I know I’m not just modeling a look, I’m embodying it. That’s when fashion becomes something spiritual. It’s not about perfection.it’s about power, presence, and being unapologetically alive.
What would you do with $20,000?
I grew up with very little, so every opportunity feels personal. I’d love to give myself and my family the luxuries and adventures we never got to experience.Being a former foster youth myself, I know what it feels like to start from nothing and dream big. I want to create a space that helps girls in the system find creativity, and self-worth through self expression the same things that helped me find my voice.This isn’t just about money. It’s about creating the kind of opportunity i once needed
