Issue18 (Part1) December 2016

What are some of your favourite experiences so far?
Some of my favourite experiences so far for me have been moving to London which is one of the greatest cities in
the world. Representing my country at the Miss Universe competition in Miami 2015 was very special. I also
loved going to India this February with the Healthy Kids Happy Kids foundation to visit all the amazing children
they work with.
Do you have any advice for those who want to start modelling?
I would say if this is a career path you want to take then you must be someone who loves being in front of the
camera and an audience. Start with knowing what type of modelling you are suited for whether it’s fashion,
commercial or any other. Start by sending in some clear photos of yourself to some of the agency’s that work
with the type of modelling that you are suited for or go to one of their walk-in casting appointments. This is an
industry that is very competitive and with an exceptionally high rejection rate so be prepared for that and know
that you won’t be right for every job. Lastly be determined and hardworking and maintain a great attitude so that
people will be more willing to work with you again.
What do you think of the magazine?
I think it is a great place for photographers and models alike to be able to display their work. I really loved
working with the talented photographer Irena Eastington (http://www.irenaphoto.co.uk/) exclusively for this
magazine shoot. When I work with professional people who are passionate and brilliant at what they do that’s
when it is truly fun and rewarding.
