5. What has been your dream campaign?

For me there is no such thing as a dream campaing, I enjoy the people, the team, all the work that goes on behind the scenes, the actuall work that makes my job easy. So every campaign, every editorial, catwalk, etc is different and I respect and apreciate them all equally. Some people have more budget so it’s usually cooler but those who don’t, hey! They’re also working hard and inside their limits to put out their best.

6. Whose runway have you always wanted to walk?

I think I’ve walked all the shows I’ve ever wanted. Calvin Klein was my first Show back in 2010 and after then i’ve walked for so many and one of them is Dsquared. LOVE DSQUARED.

Dubai, I’ve only been there once but I loved it! NYC is also cool but I live here so I’m used to it. Can’t wait to come to Australia and Visit New Zeland while in that side of the world.

I’m not picky with food. I like it all… There are people starving and dying because they have no food. So if there is food on my plate it’s my favorite food no matter what it is 😛

9. Tell us about your first shoot?

Well, what can I say… It’s hard to pick a 1st shoot as I modeled as a baby haha but it’s always exciting. I like to have fun, I like people to have fun with me so when I shoot I like to make ppl feel comfortable, I’ll make jokes, be cheesy and just let everyone see that it’s ok to relax and have fun as long as the job get’s done.

10. How do you prepare to walk?

I dance, I take pics, I make sure my outfit is on point I like to give the casting directors a hard time even if they know I’m just joking around they always get so stressed but when it’s time to walk. I do the “Zoolander, Blue Steel” and do my job. Even if ppl think I don’t I do know when it’s time for play and when not haha
