We Asked:
— What’s the most interesting thing about your family? Do you have siblings?
Both of my parents are from Bosnia, Sarajevo. They moved to Sweden as immigrants in the [Bosnian] war, and that is how I was born in Sweden. They got divorced when I was 7 so I moved with my mom to Bosnia and lived there for 10 years. After I finished elementary school I decided to move back to Sweden for better education and opportunities. Now I live with my dad in Sweden and my mom still lives in Bosnia with my stepdad and my little brother who just turned 2.
— What is one thing people may be surprised to find out about you?
I’ve never eaten a salad in my life. The only vegetables that I eat are cucumber, lettuce, and potato. Once when my friends made me eat a soya bean I cried, haha.
— What are three interesting facts about you?
The first time I did a shoot is when I was 6. I did it together with my mom and we were on the cover of a magazine.
I was born in Sweden, but I don’t speak Swedish.
As a kid, my passion was art, mainly painting/drawing. When I was 6 years old I was going to an art academy and I was the youngest one there. My pieces ended up in a city gallery.

We Asked:
— What was your most embarrassing moment?
My most embarrassing moment is when I was in a play back in middle school and it was our opening show. I messed up my timing when I was supposed to enter the stage and I came on in the middle of the scene and had to play it off like I meant to do it but it was still super embarrassing.
— How and when did you become a model?
I started off doing fashion week in New York with Malan Breton and I did that for 2 years. I was told that I should try signing with an agency and so a friend of mine who is with DT told me I should go in… so I met with David [Todd] and got signed.
— What are three interesting facts about you?
First interesting fact about me is that I used to be in a kid’s singing group called The Eco Heroes and we would go around performing songs about saving the earth. Another interesting fact is that I’m an only child and when I was born I had to wear a helmet for a few weeks because my head was misshapen. Another one is that when I was a baby I used to only speak Spanish.
