Did you always want to be a model? Tell us about how you were discovered.
I wanted to be a model since a long time. I was first discovered and introduced to be a model by one of my friends.

Most memorable modeling experience so far?
The most unforgettable thing for me so far was the Fendi SS 2024 show in Florence in 2023. It was my first show ever and I was very excited, amazing experience.

One song you have on repeat, and why?
I’ve been listening to Robyn’s Show Me Love a lot. This song helps me calm down and stay calm. It also makes me be myself in a crowd.

What other passions do you have aside from modeling?
In addition to being a model, I like playing basketball a lot in my free time because I used to be an athlete.

What is something you’ve always wanted to do/try?
I’ve always wanted to go skydiving, but I never had the courage or opportunity.

What’s one thing people may be surprised to find out about you?
People will be surprised to find that I always bring surprises everywhere, and there are always unexpected things happening.

What change would you like to see in the world?
I hope to see the world become more harmonious and friendly, without the need for too many objective evaluations.
