Answers to Q&A
What inspired you to become a model?
Growing up, I was fortunate to have numerous friends pursuing creative careers, and I often found myself collaborating with them on various artistic projects. This early exposure ignited my passion for modeling, leading me to work with small brands whenever they required a model. My journey took a significant turn when I was scouted twice—first through Instagram and later while dining with friends. Eager to find the right fit, I carefully considered several agencies, applying to those that resonated most with my aspirations most. Despite initial nerves about committing to a contract, I ultimately chose to join Lang Models, where I am now delighted to be part of an exceptional team.
What are you most excited about when it comes to modeling?
What excites me most about modeling is the intricate and dynamic creative process. Throughout my childhood, I was deeply drawn to the arts of drawing and painting, finding solace and expression in these mediums. Modeling, in many ways, mirrors these artistic pursuits. It offers the unique opportunity to collaborate with a diverse array of talented artists—photographers, stylists, makeup artists, and designers. Witnessing a creative brief evolve into a stunning photograph is akin to watching a blank canvas transform into a masterpiece. This collaborative journey, from conceptualization to realization, is truly exhilarating and fuels my passion for the craft.
