Tell us about your modeling experience.
I have never really been into modeling until my senior year of high school. I started modeling and taking senior pictures for an amazing photographer and it is what sparked my interest. Looking back at my journey, even if it is not very long I am grateful that my modeling experience began during my high school years. It was during this time that I discovered my passion, built confidence, and laid the foundation for a successful career in the fashion industry. The challenges, triumphs, and lessons learned throughout this period have shaped me into the model I am today.
What is your biggest dream?
As a child, I often daydreamed about what my future would hold. The possibilities seemed endless, and my biggest dream was to grow up and live a successful life. Along the way, I've learned the importance of setting goals, pursuing education and skills development, building a support system, embracing failure, taking risks, adapting to change, maintaining a work-life balance, and making a positive impact. These lessons have shaped me into the person I am today and continue to guide me on my journey towards ongoing success. Remember, success is not a destination; it's a lifelong journey of growth, learning, and making a difference.
What does it mean to be your own kind of beautiful?
It starts with accepting yourself for who you are, including your physical appearance, personality traits, and quirks. Embrace your imperfections and acknowledge that they are part of what makes you unique. To be your own kind of beautiful means embracing and celebrating your unique qualities, both inside and out, and not conforming to conventional standards of beauty that are often perpetuated by society, media, or others. It's about recognizing that beauty comes in diverse forms, and what makes you beautiful is not limited to physical appearance but extends to your individuality, personality, and the way you carry yourself.
Tell us about your fashion style:
Fashion is a form of self-expression that allows us to showcase our unique personalities and individuality. My style changes with the pace of fashion. I ideally like to keep my fashion sense very trendy and what I like.
Who or what inspires you?
Growing up, we all have individuals who influence and shape our lives in significant ways. For me, that person is my mom. Through her actions and unwavering support, she has become my inspiration, constantly guiding me with her strength, love, and resilience. My mom is not only my source of inspiration but also a guiding light in my life. So, here's to my mom—my greatest inspiration, my guiding star, and the embodiment of strength, love, and resilience.
What advice would you give to someone just starting in modeling?
Getting started with modeling can be an exciting but challenging endeavor. Whether you're interested in fashion, fitness, art, or any other type of modeling. Understand your strengths and weaknesses as a potential model. Consider factors like your body type, height, facial features, and unique qualities that set you apart. Success in modeling takes time. Don't get discouraged by setbacks or slow progress. Keep working on your skills and building your portfolio.
What are some obstacles you have faced and how have they changed you?
As a woman, life can present unique challenges that require resilience, determination, and the ability to overcome obstacles. From societal expectations to gender biases, women face a wide range of hurdles that can impact their personal and professional lives. However, it is through these challenges that women find strength, rise above limitations, and prove their indomitable spirit. Remember, being a woman is not a limitation, but a source of power. Embrace your uniqueness, stand tall, and conquer the world.
What makes you beautiful?
It is my unwavering belief in myself and my abilities that shines through, radiating a beauty that goes beyond societal standards. One of the most beautiful things about confidence is that it is not dependent on external factors. It is not about having a certain body type, a flawless complexion, or perfect features. It is about embracing our uniqueness and realizing that beauty comes in all shapes, sizes, and forms. Confidence is like a light that illuminates our path, allowing us to navigate through life's challenges with grace and resilience. It gives us the strength to face adversity, to overcome obstacles, and to persevere in the face of setbacks.
What advice would you give to someone who is struggling with their confidence?
First and foremost, remember that everyone has their insecurities and moments of self-doubt. It's entirely normal to struggle with confidence from time to time. Embrace your flaws and imperfections as a part of what makes you unique. Building confidence is a journey, and it may take time. Don't expect instant results, and don't be too hard on yourself if you have setbacks along the way. Confidence is not something that appears overnight, and it often requires ongoing effort and self-reflection. Be patient with yourself, and remember that it's okay to seek help and support when needed. Over time, as you work on your self-esteem, you'll likely find that your confidence grows stronger, allowing you to face life's challenges with greater self-assurance. Always remember confidence is key!
