What makes your style stand out?

The way in which I use fashion styling is what makes my personal look stand out. I use it as a tool for fun and self expression rather than trying to portray a particular image I want to be seen as. Fashion is much more powerful than aesthetics, and I really like to play off of human emotions, pop culture, nature real current world problems, and anything around me I feel drawn to. I feel this is apparent in the way I dress, and makes me stand out even further.

What’s your dream fashion moment?

My dream is to be able to make a positive difference in the fashion world. I will never be fulfilled by any project alone. The true dream for me is feeling like I have contributed something good to the world.

What would you do with $20,000?

I am a fashion student living in New York City, so it can be really difficult getting internships that pay well or even at all especially on a tight schedule. I would invest the prize money into my personal endeavors, and save it for the moments when I really need it. I have a business Idea I am currently working on and need capital to start it up, so it would be amazing to win this. I would allocate a small amount for the business, and use the rest accordingly in my styling career.
