Place of Origin:<\/strong>
\nSydney, Australia <\/p>\n

Ethnic Origin:<\/strong>
\nI am half German, quarter French and quarter Australian <\/p>\n

Birthsign:<\/strong>
\nI\u2019m a Capricorn, born 10th of January 1997<\/p>\n

How discovered:<\/strong>
\nI was discovered really young actually around 14 years old. I was walking down the road in Double Bay, Sydney, and I got approached by the head booker of a local agency… I ran home and explained what happened to my parents and they looked into the idea of me becoming a model, they were happy for me to pursue this career, obviously after school had finished aged 16! I was mentored by David Conway and now represented and managed by him and the team at Kult Australia.<\/p>\n

Favorite things:<\/strong>
\nI have a huge passion for the ocean so surfing was a big part of my childhood and still is went hand in hand with that since a kid, definitely can’t live without the salt water. If I\u2019m not surfing I love to swim and keep active especially in the water!<\/p>\n

What are you listening to at the moment?<\/strong>
\nI just came from LA and everywhere you go is rap or hip hop so I was introduced to a style called grime. It’s a different take on rap, it\u2019s cool. So Stormzy a British rapper has been on repeat ever since then.<\/p>\n

Favorite movie, tv show:<\/strong>
\nBit of a throwback here but I just got into the TV series Friends and have been addicted lol … easy to watch and funny. Even though everyone has seen it to death it’s a new thing to me.<\/p>\n

Favorite designer, fragrance or beauty product:<\/strong>
\n admire the work of Oliver Rousteing his collections for Balmain are insane… His obsession with gold and black suit my style! He actually recently did a shoe collab with Nike and it looks dope.<\/p>\n

What would you be doing if you weren’t modeling?<\/strong>
\nI used to be into my rowing throughout school and rowed at an elite level so I would say rowing for a university somewhere around the world … As for a degree at that university I have no idea, something creative…<\/p>\n

What’s something uncool that you love anyway?<\/strong>
\nHaha that’s an easy one … I love denim overalls but they have to be white or black I always end up wearing them at festivals back home or something. They are beyond uncool, in Australia we call them \u201cdaggy\u201d, but that’s why I love them.<\/p>\n

Favorite modeling experience so far?<\/strong>
\nBest experience with modelling would have to be the constant travel around the world … Every job, every city brings new adventures and experiences, definitely one of the biggest perks of this job.<\/p>\n

What’s the best thing about your hometown\/country?<\/strong>
\nAustralia is just so stunning \u2013 the vibe, the lifestyle, nature and most importantly I’ve got my friends and family there. When I am in the country I enjoy just laying on the beach to start my morning and seeing all my local crew, it\u2019s nice to travel the world and come home to a place that I love … there\u2019s not one specific thing, I just absolutely love this place.<\/p>\n

Which brand would you really love to model for?<\/strong>
\nI would love to work with Tom Ford for sure, brand is powerful, I love the clothes and campaigns are incredible.<\/p>\n

Place you would love to visit:<\/strong>
\nI have always wanted to go to Tahiti for as long as I can remember… Something about getting lost on an island surrounded by amazing water and tropical weather has me hooked on the idea! <\/p>\n

Currently you’re obsessed with\/about:<\/strong>
\nCurrently obsessed with Paris… I landed yesterday and the city is amazing! Great vibes and cool bars… I am a fan for sure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
