Tell us about how you were discovered.<\/strong><br \/>\nMy Mum has a good friend who used to model internationally, back in the day. One day, I was getting acupuncture at her work (random), and the idea of me modelling came up. She sent my pictures in, and the rest is history. Modelling was never something I looked into, but when the universe puts something in front of you, grab it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Most memorable modeling experience so far? <\/strong><br \/>\nThere are so many memorable moments. Living and working in cities like Paris and New York City has been an absolute dream. My very first show with Prada in Milan is probably the most memorable so far; I got to meet my amazing lifelong Prada sisters and had the chance to debut for one of the fashion greats, Miuccia Prada (queen).<\/p>\n<p><strong>One song you have on repeat, and why?<\/strong><br \/>\n&#8216;Been Caught Stealing&#8217; &#8211; Jane&#8217;s Addiction. It reminds me of the summer I just spent in NYC with my girls. Hot subway rides, our little apartment, the corner Target, and a new city. :P<\/p>\n<p><strong>What other passions do you have aside from modeling?<\/strong><br \/>\nThere are too many to count. I\u2019ve always been super into all kinds of music; it\u2019s something I grew up sharing with my dad. But I\u2019m in my most passionate element when I\u2019m with my best friends from back home; they\u2019re my spirit. We all share a love of fashion, film, and art. I\u2019ve also recently gotten back into writing and cooking. I\u2019m still at university back home in Sydney, and before I left, I never really had the time to keep up with my hobbies. Travelling has helped reignite that fire to create again.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is something you\u2019ve always wanted to do\/try?<\/strong><br \/>\nMy best friend and I really want to learn how to line dance. I think that would be so gaggy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s one thing people may be surprised to find out about you?<\/strong><br \/>\nThe American take on my Aussie childhood. My mum\u2019s Californian, so growing up Australian still meant celebrating Thanksgiving in the spring and going hard on my Halloween costumes as a kid ;)<\/p>\n<p><strong>What change would you like to see in the world?<\/strong><br \/>\nThere are many. I guess lately, I\u2019ve been making more of an effort to just be myself. I would like to see authenticity being embraced. There\u2019s so much pressure in society to fit into boxes and live up to external expectations, and I think that pressure limits our ability to connect as human beings. Choosing to be genuine feels quietly revolutionary in a way and, at times, incredibly difficult, especially within the fashion world. To be yourself is to love yourself.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Audrey was photographed exclusively for MODELS.com by Hein Gijsbers, with styling by Constant de Boer (assisted by Fleur van der Schilt and Roksolana Onufrak), hair by Joel Phillips &#038; makeup by Ellen Walge.
