Being unapologetically myself is my greatest strength. No matter the look I choose, my unique style and confidence are the game changers.
What makes your style stand out?
My authenticity and style are inspired by the creative expressions that surround me. I believe that once you truly understand there is only one version of who you are on this entire planet, it becomes effortless to style and dress that person with confidence and purpose.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
Being afforded the opportunity to one day mentor and lead a modeling agency that provides programs, resources, and opportunities for individuals aspiring to enter the fashion industry especially those from underrepresented communities. My goal is to create a platform that not only uplifts emerging talent but also promotes diversity, inclusion, and access within all areas of fashion.
What would you do with $20,000?
I would invest these funds into my three-year business plan, which includes owning and operating my own modeling agency. My mission is to create a platform that empowers others to rise to opportunities they never imagined possible fostering confidence, creativity, and representation within the fashion industry.
