Tell us about your modeling experience.

I have taken Acting and Modeling classes at Pro - model and talent so that was a good experience you got to learn a lot of new things each day. And I also did IMTA 2020 that was a really big experience had to work hard each day and also met really nice people and learned a lot. Also practiced runway walking with Alyssa O'Leary. 

What is your biggest dream?

My biggest dream is to travel around the whole world and have lots of jobs with modeling and acting one day .  I would also love to be featured in a nike or adidas poster or website or commercial. 

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

Being beautiful is to be happy with who you are and be yourself, and it shouldn't matter what other people think about you. 

How would you describe your fashion style?

My kinda fashion style is more like classy and comfortable depending on the day and what kind of event it is. And I also like color coordinating my clothes. 

Who or what inspires you?

Yasmin Wijnaldum and Gigi Hadid inspires me because they work so hard and I would love to do what they do and get my name as high as theirs. 

What have been your greatest accomplishments?

My greatest accomplishment was doing Imta and winning lots of awards and just trying my best those 5 competition days. 

Do you have any special talents?

I am conversational in Arabic and Romanian, I can paint and draw, and I'm good at playing soccer. 

Describe some obstacles you have overcome in your life and how that has changed or shaped you.

Some obstacles in my life was always just try and do your best, once you do something over and over you will eventually get better at doing it and the more practice you put into what you want you will eventually see the results. And the last this is you also have to be very patient everything takes time and doesn't just come automatically we wish it does but sometimes it just doesn't work that way. 

What makes you beautiful/handsome?

What makes me beautiful is my Heart and how I care for others . Its always good to have a good heart I love helping people if they ever need anything and I will always be there for someone. Being beautiful is not just about the looks its who you are as a person and if you have a good heart you are a beautiful person. You can be one of the most beautiful girls out there or guy but if your heart is ugly and not so good then so is the person. It shows whats in the inside then everything shows from the outside.  

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

I would talk to them really nicely and just say that everyone is made different. God made you the way you are and thats why your beautiful! no one looks like you, everyone has something unique about them selves and you should always own what you have because maybe someone else doest have what you have . Nobody is made perfect everyone will always have something to say about them selves but you always can make yourself a better person and own what you have.
