A Closer Look
That’s a bit about me from the outside looking in. But to truly know who I am, you have to look a little deeper. Here’s the personal side of my story—what led me here, what keeps me going, and the things that matter most to me.
Fashion has always been my passion. From a young age, I found myself drawn to the creativity and expression it allows. I’ve always loved that modeling was a living art and that the people made the clothes come alive. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working hard to establish myself in the industry, which has led to exciting opportunities—like appearing on the covers of Harper’s Bazaar and Glamour. Milestones like these have been special to me, but they’re only part of my journey.
Alongside my work in fashion, I’ve always been deeply interested in understanding the human mind. That curiosity led me to pursue a doctoral degree in clinical psychology, a field that has enriched my life in ways I couldn’t have imagined. Balancing my studies with modeling wasn’t always easy, but both have been incredibly rewarding. I believe that both fashion and psychology offer ways to connect with others—whether through visual expression or through understanding and transformation.
Another important part of my life is my love for horses. I’m an avid equestrian, and being around horses has always brought me a sense of balance and peace. Connection with horses is something that grounds me, giving me strength and focus that carry over into every other part of my life. Horses are also incredibly humbling teachers of many life lessons, like how to handle the many unpredictable aspects of life, and acceptance for the things we can’t control.
I’m proud of what I’ve accomplished, but I know that none of it would have been possible without a passion for learning, the determination to keep challenging myself, and the many people who have helped and I’ve learned from along the way. I hope that my story can serve as a reminder that it’s possible to follow your dreams—even if those dreams take you in different directions. With determination, anything is within reach.
