What is your biggest dream?
My biggest dream is to walk Victoria secrets fashion show and become an angel!
What does it mean to be your own kind of beautiful?
To me it means to be comfortable in your own skin. Have confidence but not be cocky. Where you can look at your-self in the Mirror and be happy.
Tell us about your modeling experience.
My modeling experience comes from a young age. I have always wanted to make modeling my career as I got older. I was 16 when I signed with my first agency after taking 8 weeks of classes with them. To me that was a huge accomplishment. I’ve done a TV commercial, I was on CBS tell me a story tv show, many runway shows, a TON of photoshoots with great local photographers, and interviews for our local news in TN.
What is your dream brand to model for?
This is hard to just say one brand that i would love to work with, but of course it is Victoria secret hands down. But also Versace, Chanel, Balmain, Gucci, micheal kors, and so many more amazing brands and companies.
How would you describe your fashion style?
I would describe my fashion style as girly but comfy. I love high heels, dresses, and a good glam. But always want to be comfy in anything I wear! I guess I would also say that I have a very “girl next door” look as well. I never really jump on the hottest trends that everyone wears.
How important is self-awareness and confidence to you in your everyday life?
I think it’s super important. I struggled with self confidence so much in high school and still it hits can hit me at some moments to this day. But how I gained my confidence was through self love, and to stop comparing myself to every beautiful girl and body I saw on social media. And of course to take care of myself mentally and emotionally first.
What makes you beautiful?
I think what makes me beautiful is my personality. A smile goes a long way, and to me that is what makes me look the most beautiful, and the way I carry myself.
What would you say to another girl your age who is struggling with their confidence?
I would tell her to practice self love 100%. And that every women goes through it and it always will get better. Stop comparing yourself to what you see on social media and in magazines! Because you are your own person and that’s what makes your beautiful.
