As I’ve grown older, my interest in modelling has made me more creative and I’m excited to pursue it as a career and see where it leads me.

Modelling for me is a great way to build my self confidence, you learn to love and accept your quirks and flaws when working in front of the camera. You’ll also learn to take directions and feedback positively, which can also be helpful in other areas of life.
