Mega Model Agency (Hamburg)

Age:
21

Height:
5’9″

Place of Origin:
Stockholm, Sweden

Ethnic Origin:
I’m of Swedish heritage with a little bit of Norwegian blood.

Birthsign:
Taurus!

How discovered:
I got in contact with a scout back in Sweden two years ago. My friend who is a model too, kind of shouted me out to her. And a couple of months back she uploaded some Polaroids of me on her Facebook website, and then Mega Models found me there and signed me!

Favorite things:
I really enjoy laughing. Laughing with a lovely company until your belly hurts. Just to feel connected and at home, is very valuable to me.

Favorite music, band:
I like everything from rock to classical. But I’m very fond of indie rock though, The Kooks for example. I saw them live in Stockholm a couple of months ago, really charming band.

Favorite movie, tv show:
“Just Friends” is a movie I find myself repeatedly watching. I like The Vampire Diaries too, and Pretty Little Liars. It’s easy to get addicted to something so entertaining.

Favorite designer, fragrance or beauty product:
I love Valentino. And I have been loving the brand for years. As far as fragrance and beauty goes I’m really into Dolce & Gabbana Pour Femme. A gorgeous scent with slightly vanilla to it. I’m also a huge fan of exfoliating the skin. Often. It’s very effective for maintaining the youthful and healthy appearance of your skin.

What would you be doing if you weren’t modeling?
I think I would have studied Psychology at University. Before I was a model I worked as a truck driver in a storage. Nowadays, I try to just relax and follow my intuition. Day by day.

What’s something uncool that you love anyway?
I still have 3 cuddle bears in my bed. And they all have names too ;)

Favorite modeling experience so far?
I have to say that my favorite experience so far is when I went to Norway just a couple of days ago for a shoot. The styling was incredible, very close to my personal style and the team was so lovely. Not to mention Norway’s beautiful nature.

What’s the best thing about your hometown/country?
The calmness and the people with desire to help each other. It’s also nice to be able to drink the clean tap water wherever you are. It’s a pure blessing.

Which brand would you really love to model for?
My dream job would be to do a campaign for Balmain. I love the rough kind of beauty they often present.

Place you would love to visit:
I’m currently very interested in England, London in particular. I would also love to go to Egypt, Alaska and Australia.

Currently you’re obsessed with/about:
Hot water with lemon. Seriously better than coffee.
