How discovered:
I got scouted in Cologne, and when I came to Toronto to learn English I met up with my current bookers at Elmer Olsen!

Favorite things:
My favorite thing to do is laying in my bed, listening to good music, scrolling 9Gag and eating a 24″ Pepperoni Pizza. I couldn’t live without Pizza. But it’s definitely a special treat!

What are you listening to at the moment?
I love listening to Techno and German Rap. My favorite artists are DVS1, Ben Klock, Marcel Dettmann and 187 Strassenbande.

Favorite movie, tv show:
Definitely the Butterfly Effect and Mortal Junkie, I love movies that mess with my head.

Favorite designer, fragrance or beauty product:
I don’t have any particular designer that I’d prefer, but I really enjoy the work of Raf Simons. Davidoff Cool Water is definitely one of my all time favorite fragrances.

What would you be doing if you weren’t modeling?
If I never became a model I would probably be stuck in my hometown, seeing all the same faces everyday and not getting out of my comfort zone.

What’s something uncool that you love anyway?
Most people don’t get why I love wearing socks in my Adidas slippers.

Favorite modeling experience so far?
I remember one of my first shoots with Marta & Francesca Colli in Milan. It was an Editorial for BoysByGirls and these two talented sisters made this shooting an outstanding experience for me, it was so much fun!

What’s the best thing about your hometown/country?
Apart from all the people that mean the most to me, I really miss the German food and beer for sure, but the thing I miss the most about my hometown is the music scene. There are no raves like the ones at home.

Which brand would you really love to model for?
I would really love to model for Saint Laurent Paris.

Place you would love to visit:
Probably Mongolia. I would love to see the country and its people.

Currently you’re obsessed with/about:
I’m obsessed with listening to music and I’ve always been, but since I started travelling music is really important to me.
