Tell us about how you were discovered.<\/strong><br \/>\nI never thought about modeling until my mother agency scouted me on the street. Took me a while to understand this industry, but it&#8217;s definitely my pleasure to be a part of it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Most memorable modeling experience so far? <\/strong><br \/>\nHmm, I can\u2019t quite decide&#8230; my first casting was with DM Casting in China, and they were super supportive right from day one\u2014I\u2019m so grateful for that. Then, my first campaign was for Burberry, cast by Anita from Establishment NY, and it was truly a magical experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>One song you have on repeat, and why?<\/strong><br \/>\nMoonlight by XXXTentacion.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What other passions do you have aside from modeling?<\/strong><br \/>\nI love traveling and experiencing nature, especially mountain climbing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is something you\u2019ve always wanted to do\/try?<\/strong><br \/>\nI&#8217;ve always wanted to try skydiving\u2014it seems like the ultimate adrenaline rush and a way to see the world from a completely different perspective.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s one thing people may be surprised to find out about you?<\/strong><br \/>\nHaha, I\u2019m not really sure\u2014guess you\u2019ll have to stick around and find out!<\/p>\n<p><strong>What change would you like to see in the world?<\/strong><br \/>\nI\u2019d love to see a world with fewer wars and more focus on peace. It\u2019s about fostering understanding and dialogue, resolving conflicts through compassion, and building a future where cooperation triumphs over violence. Peace isn\u2019t just the absence of war\u2014it\u2019s the presence of justice, equality, and mutual respect across all nations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Long was photographed exclusively for MODELS.com by Ellen Virgona, with styling by Mercedes Rigby.
