Tell us about yourself:

I'm from Los Angeles, but grew up here in Austin Texas. I am half Argentinian half Greek and I am 19 years old.  I've always dreamed of modeling since I was a little girl, I'd always do little fashion shows for my parents growing up 

Tell us about your modeling experience:

I got scouted by a photographer at my serving job, we did a bunch of photoshoots and set up my portfolio, a couple months later I walked my first NYFW and walked in 3 shows, one being runway 7. I am doing 4 shows in this years Miami swim week as well

What is your biggest dream?

My biggest dream would be to walk in every fashion week (Paris, Milan, etc) and also to be on vogue or any sort of magazine, or commercial shoot. Seeing myself in a store or billboard would be my biggest accomplishment ever. 

What does it mean to be your own kind of beautiful

I think that's being your own kind of beautiful all comes from loving and embracing all your unique features and qualities, whether that means physical or emotional. To not compare yourself to society's standards and be happy with who you are in your own skin. 

How would you describe your fashion style?

My fashion style is very broad, I actually majored in fashion when I went to college so it's a very big part of my life. I have a couple different styles ranging from street wear, old money fashion, elegant/classy, and western. Putting together outfits is one of my favorite things to do. 

Who or what inspires you?

My biggest inspiration is Kendall Jenner, I have been so drawn to her my entire life and always wanted to be exactly like her. She is my favorite model and seeing her walk makes me day dream about being a big model. Another inspiration of mine is actually one of my best friends, he started modeling a couple of years ago just for fun and is now walking huge shows and booking crazy shoots such as Dior, Givenchy, Calvin Klein, and Tom ford. Seeing him succeed really pushed me to keep trying in modeling. 

What advice would you give to someone who is just getting started in modeling?

My biggest advice to someone who just started modeling would be do not give up. Rejection is a huge part of this industry and I learned to never let it discourage you. I've gotten denied from shows and agencies and it really did make me wanna quit but I always decide to keep going because you will never succeed without failure. 

What are some obstacles you have overcome and how has that changed you?

The biggest obstacle have overcame would be bullying, I was severely bullied all throughout middle school and high school for my skin color, being skinny, and my teeth. It was very very hard to overcome this trauma and pain but I would not be the person I am today without it. I learned to love myself so much and it's gotten me here, modeling, which is honestly the best feeling ever. 

What make you beautiful?

What makes me beautiful is that I am a very happy hearted person that wants the best for everyone. I have a lot of unique qualities inside and out and I also carry myself very well. Im also a mix of 2 very beautiful ethnicities and I love it! 

What would you tell someone who is struggling with their confidence?

I would tell someone my age that is struggling with confidence to not be so hard on themselves and to not compare themselves to people especially people on social media because in this generation mostly everything is edited. I'd tell them to always remember that everyone is uniquely beautiful and to never talk negatively about themselves. My key to keeping my confidence up is waking up and saying my daily affirmations and it's helped me so so much.
