Style is something that helps me transform. My style morphs within me based upon my personality or current mood. I embody it all.
What makes your style stand out?
I feel my most eye-catching piece isn’t even an article of clothing. My confidence is what makes heads turn when I enter a room. Since a young girl, I’ve had a strong sense of self and that translates regardless of what I’m wearing.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
I’ve had a dream of being a high fashion runway model since before I could even walk in heels. To be able to pump down the runway of Gaultier, Mugler, McQueen, or Westwood would be a dream come true. Especially because models who are my height are often told that there is no place for us on the runway because of old fashion standards. I want to show the world that a small package packs a mean pump.
What would you do with $20,000?
If I were to win $20,000, I would invest in my styling and directing business. Unfortunately I had to dissolve my LLC because I couldn’t afford to keep the license active. I’d also give a portion of my winnings to my mother, who has supported and financed every single dream I’ve ever had. She never once put down my dreams or told me they were impossible. I owe her everything and more.
