Did you always want to be a model? Tell us about how you were discovered.
Yes, when I was 14-15 years old, but I wanted it to come to me, so I concentrated on my studies. Being very attracted to fashion, I went to a school for the creation of women’s clothing for 3 years. Two months after finishing my studies, I was spotted, and from there, the adventure began. I think I’m realising my dream, and I’m very happy to have been able to experience both sectors of fashion. For me, it was the next logical step in my apprenticeship.
Most memorable modeling experience so far?
Alberta Ferretti Resort 2024
One song you have on repeat, and why?
Josman – “Si tu savais…”
What other passions do you have aside from modeling?
Clothes, driving cars, creating, drawing, cooking, styling outfits
What is something you’ve always wanted to do/try?
Modeling, but now I’m in it, so I won’t try riding a motorbike.
What’s one thing people may be surprised to find out about you?
People are surprised to hear about my origins.
What change would you like to see in the world?
That everyone can feel safe and secure everywhere, with more real people, more sincerity, and less jealousy.
