In a few words, what do you think it takes to be a successful model in this industry? What factors have contributed to your success?

To be a successful model you need confidence, resilience and hard work. For me, it’s about staying true to yourself, having a strong work ethic and always being open to learning and growing.

As someone living in New York, you are a woman that is constantly on the go. How do you dress for the city in a way that is practical but still reflects your style?

I always need to feel comfortable and confident. Living in New York means constantly running around and taking the subway, so my outfits have to be stylish and practical. Heels are only for special occasions and they have to feel good.

Timelessness is important in a well-curated wardrobe. How do you balance trends and classic pieces when it comes to dressing?

Timeless style is a must for me. I love mixing classic staples with fun pieces each season. It’s all about having a few key items that never grow out of style and adding some fun bits to keep things fresh. This way, my wardrobe stays exciting and always feels new.
