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

Growing up, I was painfully insecure and I hated taking photos and my mom was always beautiful and love fashion and we grew up in Nepal and she still bought vogue magazines for her toilet and I would always go use her toilet so I could read the magazines and me, and my sister would always go through it together too. I was reached out to actually in Washington Square, Park and I got street scouted for my biggest campaign. Other than that photographers and agencies have connected with me through Instagram.

-- Most recent impulse buy, and why?

My most recent had to have it purchased is a long lavender wig that I call lollipop and it match the jacket I was wearing, and I loved it. I couldn’t wait to get home to cut it because I love to style my wigs

-- What other passions do you have aside from modeling?

I love singing I’m currently learning how to play on my pink ukulele and I am learning covers and eventually want to combine that with my poetry to make my own music
