What makes your style stand out?

What makes me stand out is my authentic self. I don’t simply go with the flow—I create my own era. I believe fashion has no timeline, and my style reflects that. Depending on my mood, I can be both minimalist and maximalist, which keeps my look versatile and unique.”

What’s your dream fashion moment?

“My dream fashion moment is sitting front row at Milan Fashion Week and meeting Elton John—a true icon who not only shaped music but also used his influence to champion HIV/AIDS awareness. Experiencing both style and purpose in one moment will be unforgettable

What would you do with $20,000?

“I’d turn $20,000 into power—fueling my Master’s in Nursing and building a platform where fashion isn’t just style, it’s a movement: inspiring authenticity and amplifying voices on issues like HIV/AIDS.”
