What would surprise people to know about you?

I learned from her.

What are your modelling ambitions? When the Ukraine wins, I want to be the face of this victory, featuring on London buses, the tube, and on big billboards I’m already working on it with a local company I also want to be on the world’s best runways I hope more publications in well-known magazines will support it, so I’m grateful to you for the opportunity to feature here
