Where are you from?
So I am originally from Maryland, but I’ve really lived all over the place: in Europe, Guam, Hawaii, a bunch of different states. Kind of a nomad. I’m a nomad so the hardest question is, “where are you from?”
What are three words you would use to describe yourself?
Three words that I would use to describe myself are sarcastic and funny, at least I think I’m funny, and caring about people.
What’s your favorite movie?
My favorite movie is Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.
Favorite holiday?
My favorite holiday is Christmas.
Dream place to travel?
My dream place to travel would have to be Cambodia. It’s my number one.
What’s your favorite memory?
My favorite memory is when I went with my family to Thailand and Hong Kong for spring break back in high school.
What’s your biggest strength?
My biggest strength is I feel like I compartmentalize and I’m just a really strategic person. That’s my biggest strength.
When are you most inspired?
I am most inspired in the morning. I like to wake up, listen to music and get my mind. I feel like that’s when I’m most inspired.
What makes you smile the most?
My puppy, she makes me smile the most.
What’s one thing people would be surprised to know about you?
I’m afraid of everything. I won’t go on any roller coaster. I’m just the biggest scaredy-cat.
Sweet or savory?
I think I would pick sweet over savory.
Beauty product you couldn’t live without?
I cannot live without these freeze tools from Georgia Louise. And they just roll in your face every morning and they’re the best thing in the entire world. I tell everybody to buy them. Keep them in your freezer, roll your face in the morning.
What’s a song you can listen to on repeat?
A song I can listen to on repeat is Crash Into Me by Dave Matthews band. That’s my favorite song.
What’s a top highlight in your career?
I did a Calvin Klein campaign earlier this year and I feel like that was a top highlight.
What’s your favorite time of day?
My favorite time of day is early morning, I’m an early riser. When no one else is
awake and you can just have a second to yourself. That’s my favorite time.
What’s one thing you’ve always wanted to do but have been scared to try?
I really would love to scoop it out, but I’m way too scared to actually try to do it. I feel like it would be cool.
Any projects you’re currently working on?
Currently, I am working on trying to come out with a lounge wear resort wear line. That’s coming soon.
What is something you learned about yourself during COVID quarantine?
Something that I learned about myself during COVID was that I enjoy being alone. I like my alone time, surprisingly. It made me a lot more centered and I just enjoyed being by myself.
What’s your spirit animal?
My spirit animal is a sloth. They’re just tired and always chilling. They like being alone, they sleep, they’re cute, they have long nails. My spirit animal.
