and market myself. Now we have more control than ever on how we are perceived in the public eye, and for models and actresses, it gives us an opportunity to show our interests, hobbies, and passions in photos and videos! It’s also a great way for me to stay in touch with my friends and family! If there was anything you could change about the industry what would it be? I would love to see more diversity throughout the industry. From the models we see on magazine covers to the most watched video series, all ethnicities, sizes, sexes, colors, cultures, and ages should be portrayed as beautiful. It would be the best change for our industry today! What advice would you give to an aspiring model? Never Give UP! Show kindness and love to the people around you. Where are you traveling to next? I’m traveling to Paris next week for fashion week! I am super excited because France is one of my favorite cities, especially if I’m in the mood for some fries or macaroons! What is your fitness/ nutrition regime? I typically eat a plant-based diet high in good fats such as avocado and nuts. I also try to avoid sugars and drink lots of water throughout the day. I always stay super active on a daily basis, so after I squeeze in a few classes during the week, I’m still getting good cardio on a regular basis by taking the stairs or walking a few extra blocks. Some of my favorite classes in the city are Rumble boxing, Shock Therapy, and F45 Training. Another secret I use is adding MCT oils to my coffee in the morning (bulletproof coffee) for added energy. Also, I try to add a Cryotherapy (House of Cryo) and Sweat (Sweat House) session a few times a week! What would you like to do after modeling? Right now, I’m working on my own clothing line called Naked Species! It’s an eco-friendly fitness line that gives back by donating a portion of the profits to protect endangered species! So, stay tuned! I’m also submerging myself into auditions and acting classes, so I can really sharpen my acting skills and transition into being a full-time actress. In the next 5-10 years, I will passionately be pursuing my career as a full-time model, actress, designer, philanthropist, artist and occasional chef!
