What makes you happy?
I am happy when I am with friends and family. I am also happy being in front of a camera, on a runway or on the field cheering for my high school.
As a kid what did you want to be when you grew up?
I have wanted to model since as long as I can remember, My grandpa made me a runway in my basement and I had a toy box filled with dress up clothes and shoes that my friends and I would wear to put on shows.
What’s the last song that got stuck in your head?
One Dance by Drake.
Describe a favorite childhood memory:
My favorite childhood memories are going to Walt Disney World. My family went often and I loved to dress up like the princesses and go to character dinners and get their autographs and pictures with them. I love going to the Halloween and Christmas parties, too. My family loves Disney and when everyone in the family gets time off, we plan a Disney trip. Last time I was in California I went to Disneyland.
What is one thing not many people know about you?
People would be surprised to know that I fly back and forth from Ohio to California monthly so I can model in Los Angeles and attend high school in Ohio.
