How does it feel to be so popular for your beauty?

It’s interesting for sure. But I don’t want to just be known for what I look like. I aspire to give insight to others so that they can live a more positive fulfilling life. I’m really into mental health awareness and advocating for mental and physical health I believe it’s so important to take care of yourself. That way you live a longer healthier life for the people you love.

What downsides would you let other ladies who aspire to be like you know?

Modeling / Entertainment business can be cutthroat. You have to get used to rejection and not landing certain deals. But you have to have grit, determination, and optimism or you’re going to be very disappointed. Get used to being told no, and also get used to a lot of people who will discourage you from following your dream. Keep a positive mindset. If you can do that… you’re well on your way.

How was it like working with Miami Swim Week and also NYFW?

Miami swim was both a dream and a nightmare. It was my first time walking in swim week and I walked for several huge brands. It was a life-changing experience for me, I loved being on the runway.

NYFW was a dream, something I always wanted to do and it’s crazy actually living in a moment I once dreamed to be apart of. So much fun but crazy schedule of running around to be to shows and going to castings, meeting so many people, the parties. Barely anytime for rest.

Before you go, What are your top 3 beauty/fitness secrets?

1. Take care of your teeth. One of the first things people will see is your teeth. Brush them, floss, and get braces if you have to. But you only get one set of teeth, so protect them!
2. Take care of your body. Drink water! It’s the easiest thing we forget to do. Limit your intake of sugar and processed foods/Sodas. Work out 4x a week if you can. Exfoliate your skin. Watch what you put into your body.
3. Take care of your mental health. Protect your peace from people who are emotionally draining beware of the company that you keep its crucial to what can happen to you and for you in life. If your mental health is falling apart so will everything else around you.
