Tell us a little about yourself and what you do!
Hi, I've always been ambitious and adventurous so I decided to travel the world once I finished college and I did. I started working as a model right after and it had taken me to amazing places.
Why are shoes important to you?
It's something that can make an outfit, totally a deal breaker.
How has your perception of beauty evolved over the years?
I used to think that beauty only existed in certain spaces or shapes or colors. Now I think I can find beauty everywhere.
Which J.Adams shoes do you like and why?
I think the Stormi double strap block heels are my favorite. Fancy but secure and comfy.
Shop the Stormi shoe.
What are some tips on maintaining balance and taking care of your well-being?
I will normally power off all screens and have a small ritual for de-escalating my own nervous energy, a cup of tea, and prob a face mask.
What is your personal or professional mission?
I think find balance in everything I do and have long-lasting relationships
Make a wish for your future self.
This girl is gonna be a boss.
