Did you always want to be a model? Tell us about how you were discovered.
I actually just wanted to go to school and focus on a craft to make money and help find change in the world. Then my mother agency found me from an academy I enrolled in, and the rest, they say, is history…

Most memorable modeling experience so far?
My debut was a dream, being a Prada exclusive and also walking for Dior under Kim Jones.

One song you have on repeat, and why?
The Woo – Pop Smoke ft. 50 Cent & Roddy Ricch

What other passions do you have aside from modeling?
I’m getting into real estate; it’s a long time passion… and I love bags 💼 I’m also trying to start up a line soon in the future… stay tuned.

What is something you’ve always wanted to do/try?
I’ve always wanted to try photography; I guess the future will tell. And I love basketball.

What’s one thing people may be surprised to find out about you?
I do music 😂😂😂 I love music.

What change would you like to see in the world?
Nigerian models and other African models getting as much opportunity to be seen and heard. And for change to be made in Africa.
