Did you always want to be a model? Tell us how you got discovered.
I always wanted to be a model and I went to an agency in Tbilisi for a casting. They signed me on the spot and I started working immediately.

Most memorable modeling experience so far?
Absolutely debuting in my first show, the LV Resort Show in San Diego. The production, the collection, the team. Something I will remember forever.

One song you have on repeat and why?
I’ll call you back – Erykah Badu

What other passions do you have asides from modeling?
Sketching, painting, drawing. I practice yoga almost every day – it keeps me centered. I also love roller skating, especially on a summer day by the water on a pier 😊. Rock climbing is another big one.

What is something you’ve always wanted to do/try?
I would love to pursue acting eventually.

What’s one thing people may be surprised to find out about you?
From the age of 9 to 12, I took my homemade sled made by my father to school every day during the winter. I still have my sled at my parents’ house 😉

What change would you like to see in the world?
I would love to change children’s environment in places where they might not have as many opportunities as others. The next generation should never worry about food, housing, clothing, and education. Children should be protected and prioritized highly in society. This is something that I will always work towards, and do everything I can to contribute. It’s close to my heart.
