How did you become an influencer?
I became an influencer through a mix of hard work and luck. It takes perseverance to constantly take photos, edit and then get no traction. Just know that eventually it pays off.
How would you describe your personal fashion style?
I would describe my style as high end streetwear mixed with classic pieces. I love combining different styles to make a unique, modern classic look.
What is the best part about your job?
Being able to connect with so many people at once.
Describe your social feed in 3 words.
Modern, Edgy, High-end
What are 3 of your must have travel items when flying?
Comfy sweats, my headphones and peanuts.
What is some of the best style advice you have ever received?
I read once that Ralph Waldo Emerson said “Being perfectly well-dressed gives one a tranquility that no religion can bestow.” Now that’s a mood.
If you could switch places with a celebrity/public figure for a day, who would it be and why?
I would switch places with Virgil Abloh, who just became the new Men’s Artistic Director at Louis Vuitton and runs Off-White, one of my favorite brands. I would love to experience what goes into designing great clothes, becoming an influential trend setter and to be honest, I wouldn’t mind traveling around the world DJing.
What is your signature drink order?
I always go for a traditional Old Fashioned with a bourbon whiskey.
What is the next destination on your bucket list?
I would love to visit Tokyo. Everything, from the culture, clothing and food, interests me.
Outside of blogging, what are some of your hobbies?
I love taking photographs, running and grabbing coffee with friends.
Most recent TV series you binge watched.
Mindhunter on Netflix. It was insane.
What is your favorite part of Modeliste Mode Around the Globe getaways?
It’s always about the people we’re with. Whether it’s having adventures with old friends or making new ones along the way, the people make the trip.
