What makes your style stand out?

What makes my style stand out is that I never aim to look like everyone else. If I’m overdressed—even just to pump gas or grab groceries—all the better. I love pairing heels and accessories with unexpected pieces, mixing vintage with modern, and adding little twists that make the look mine. My style is about showing up fully, no matter where I am!

What’s your dream fashion moment?

My dream fashion moment would be seeing my face in Vogue, turning the passion that started with dressing my Barbies into reality. I’d love to attend Paris Fashion Week, wear a custom silhouette made just for me, and grow as a stylist. Fashion is my escape and my voice—and I want to inspire others to express who they truly are through style.

What would you do with $20,000?

I would use $20,000 to launch my styling business, helping people discover their unique style and express themselves confidently. Fashion has always been my passion, and I want to break people out of the shell that holds them back from experimenting with clothes. I’d also invest in learning, creating content, and building a platform to inspire others to embrace individuality through style.
