What were you like as a child?
I was an eccentric child. I’d be trying to do handstands in the laundry mat and try to race taxi cars with my bicycle.
8. What do you see yourself doing after your modelling career?
I see myself writing for a fashion magazine. Hopefully Vice or Dazed at some point.
What’s one subject you could talk about for at least 5 minutes?
Stephen Hawking’s theories about the universe..
What is one thing people may be surprised to find out about you?
I can wiggle my ears like Dumbo.
What were you doing before modelling and do you miss it?
Before modeling, I was an intern for Marc Jacobs Intl, in the merchandising department and it was amazing experience during high school. But I don’t miss it at all. I kind of love the on-the-go lifestyle. Never knowing what’s next.
