How would you describe yourself in a few words?
I’m a very openminded person who loves trying new things and meeting new people! Maybe I’m a bit crazy too hihi…
How long have you been a model?
I’ve started modelling exactly one year ago and when I look back it’s a year where lots of things happened and a lot has changed. I cannot say how thankful and proud I am for this progress!
How did you get into modelling?
First I’ve started behind the camera. I loved taking photos of my friends and the things around me. And after some time I tried to take photos with the self timer of myself too. Surprisingly the photos were quite good and some photographers started getting in touch with me.
How was your first shooting? Tell us a bit about that first experience.
My first professional shooting was very special for me. I had incredibly much fun and I knew for the first second that I definitely want to continue modelling.
What does modelling mean to you?
Modelling is my passion, it’s the best side job I could imagine! I love to get in touch with new people and of course traveling which is a big part of the model business.
A model you particularly admire?
I admire every model who lives her dream! Meanwhile, I try to be one of this models too even if it means to work hard for it.
If you could choose, where would you like to shoot?
I’ve never been to America before so it’s a big dream for me to have a shooting there someday. I guess you have so many opportunities there: the beaches, nice fashion locations (…) I’m excited by the diversity!
What is your dressing style in everyday life?
A style is a way to impress me so it’s very important for me. On one hand, I love to deal with the newest trends but one the other hand I just like it casual and comfy sometimes.
If you could live anywhere, where would it be?
For me living in Germany is a blessing. It’s important for me to have my base here and to know that I can come back every time.
What is happiness?
Happiness is for me to live with the people I love and to do the things I like, no matter what other people say! It may be hard sometimes but I’m so proud of myself that I never gave up.
Where can we find you on a Friday night?
On a Friday night, you mostly finde me in bed cuddling with my boyfriend.
What’s your next goal?
My next goal and the first priority is to complete my abitur. After that, I want to see the world and of course continue modelling but I would like to create it more international.
