My style is art—driven by confidence, colored with creativity, unapologetically me.

What makes your style stand out?
What makes my style stand out is my unapologetic energy. I’m bold, blunt, and carry that IDGAF attitude into everything I wear. I don’t dress to blend in — I dress to be remembered. My style is confidence in its loudest form, and that’s what makes it impossible to ignore.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment would be walking down a runway. Ever since I was a teenager, I’ve talked about it constantly — the lights, the music, the energy. I’ve always imagined that feeling of owning the catwalk, every step a statement. To me, it’s not just fashion, it’s a lifelong dream finally unfolding in front of the world.
What would you do with $20,000?
If I had $20K, I’d use it to get back on my feet, build stability, and invest in my future. But I’d also give back — especially to other trans women searching for safe, stable homes. My bestie Nikole and I always say if we hit big, we’d split it. I’d do the same here: rise up myself while making sure she rises too. Winning only matters if you share it with the ones you love.
