If you could change anything about yourself, what would it be?
I think everybody wants to change something in themselves. We are constantly surround by photoshop beauty retouching. But we should remember the beauty is a relative term. So I think women should love and accept themselves. We are all special. But if I had to honestly answer what I want to change in myself...hm...a lot things. The first will be height I think. I would like to be less nervous too and don't worry about things that don't depend on me.
How did you start modeling?
I started this adventure from signed up on one of the popular model site. There I met my of blessed memory friend and photographer - Nicholas Javed. Amazing and very talented person. We did together a lot of session and he helped me taking one's first steps in modeling. He changed my life and I owe him a lot. It was a great honor to developed in his side. I miss him all the time. Rest in peace, my friend and authority.
What do you think of the work as a model?
A lot of people think that it's easy work. I hate this opinion. It’s not about only looking good in the front of camera and smiling. Model always must be in a good shape with good skin and well cared body. Always punctual, full of energy. Posing is a psychic work, you have to give a lot of yourself. So after that I am usually very tired. Your character and personality are very important
What is your beauty regimen?
I drink a glass of water with lemon every morning. I love organic cosmetics and I’m addicted to skin care. I try to work out a lot, run to calm down and not to do make up for everyday. I practically completely got rid of sugar. Laugh is the best medicine!
What are your personal qualities which distinguish you from others?
I'm very ambitious and always strive for my goals. It puts a lot of pressure on me. I’m my biggest critic. I think I have a lot of empathy and I’m very emotional approach to every situation and people. I love talking to people, listening to them and helping them. You are valuable when you give good to others.
What are your plans for the future?
In the future I want to travel a lot and develop in many directions. I have hope I will still work in modeling and still confidently go ahead. My dream is to marry love of my life and have children. I want stability, love, health for my loved ones and happiness.
What are some of your favorite experiences so far?
Meeting new people, listening their stories and talking about life, experience and world view is the best feeling for internal development. I love when we create something amazing together, these energy is something so strong and irreplaceable. Every adventure is something that will stay with me for all my life.
Do you have any advice for those who want to start modeling?
More courage! And don't choose easy way. If you want to be succeed, you must work very hard. Everything that is easy is without expression, taste or meaning. Don’t listen to negative opinions from others. Remember, it's your life, your happiness and your potential.
What do you think of the magazine?
It's a great platform for models and photographers to share they photos. I wish all the best and I will look with pleasure on the development!
