Sharp lines, bold statements, and comfort that empowers—style excites me when it accentuates presence without sacrificing ease.
What makes your style stand out?
My style stands out through clean, sharp lines paired with bold patterns that draw the eye without feeling overwhelming. I keep jewelry minimal because I believe the clothes should speak for themselves—strong pieces don’t need to be crowded. It’s that mix of precision, statement, and restraint that makes my style distinctive.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment is seeing myself on a runway or in the pages of a magazine—proof that style can carry a story. But more than personal visibility, I dream of working with an organization that empowers minorities to feel and look their best. Fashion should be a mirror where everyone can see their strength, beauty, and belonging. That’s the moment I’m chasing: when representation meets confidence.
What would you do with $20,000?
With $20,000, I’d first give back to the people who supported me along the way—they’re the reason I can keep moving forward. Then I’d travel to the places that inspire me most: the calm of Seaside, the creativity of Amsterdam, and the energy of Tokyo. It would be both gratitude and growth—sharing what I’ve gained, then filling my spirit in the places I love most.
