Tell us about yourself

I am 17 years old and a senior in high school. I live in Utah but love the ocean and want to live closer to it one day.

What does it mean to be your own kind of beautiful?

Tell us about your modeling experience.

I am just beginning on my modeling journey and am excited to work hard and learn tons! 

What is your dream brand to model for?

I have two dream brands to model for. I would love to model for Sherri Hill and Under Armour. They may seem like complete opposites but, I believe every girl has two sides to them. A side that wants to be tough and a side that wants to be pretty. There is beauty in both of those things and I would love to be a model of that.

How would you describe your fashion style?

I would describe my fashion style as fun, playful, and spirited.

How important is self-awareness and confidence to you in your everyday life?

Self awareness and self confidence is very important in my life. It was something that took me years to figure out but once I knew I was truly beautiful, I started to take more opportunities and really love my life. 

What makes you beautiful?

I think what makes me beautiful are my eyes. My eyes see all the beautiful things on the Earth and I hope some of that beauty reflects back in me.

What would you say to another girl your age who is struggling with their confidence?

To somebody struggling with self confidence, I would say: Look in the mirror every day and tell yourself you are truly beautiful. And don't ever stop doing it! Once you know your true beauty, help others see to there own.
