- Did you always want to be a model? Tell us about how you were discovered.

Modeling wasn’t my dream. I actually wanted to be a professional basketball player and ran away from the thought of becoming a model. Once the pursuit of being a professional basketball did not pan out. Took me 3 years later for me to finally fall into modeling. I attended an open casting for my current agency and got selected then the rest was history.

- What are your favorite forms of self care and why?

Sleep plays a huge role in how you are able to function in all aspects of your everyday life. It’s truly important for you mentally and physically.

- What other passions do you have aside from modeling?

Being a creative director. Being a model helped me creatively from photo and video shoot. Being able to come up with a vision and having the ability to bring it to life is so fulfilling.
