What makes your style stand out?

What makes my style stand out is the story I get to tell through it, especially in photos. Each outfit is more than just clothing—it’s a way to express a mood, a feeling, or a moment in time. I love creating looks that let people see a part of my personality and the story I’m sharing without me saying a word.

What’s your dream fashion moment?

My dream fashion moment would be walking the runway, not just wearing a beautiful piece, but embodying the story behind it. For me, it’s about more than the clothes—it’s about confidence, presence, and showing that anyone can take up space in a powerful way. I want to step out under the lights and remind people that dreams don’t have to stay dreams—they can be lived, one bold walk at a time.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I had $20,000, I’d first use it to support my mum, who has sacrificed so much to give my siblings and me the best opportunities in life. Beyond that, I’d invest in my dream career in modeling—building my portfolio, attending workshops, and creating opportunities to step confidently onto the runway. It would be a way to honor my family while pursuing my passion.
