What was your defining moment as a social media influencer?
The moment that defined my career in social networking was the pandemic. I started uploading content to TikTok for fun and I had a fairly rapid growth in a short time. That motivated me to keep uploading content to all my social media channels on a daily basis.
How do you hope to influence people through your social media platform? What can people expect to see when visiting your social media page(s)?
My goal as an influencer is to inspire my followers to always be themselves and to know how far they can go by doing what they like. My followers will always see the real me. I love to show my funny side and laugh at myself in situations that happen day to day. Today, we see many pretty faces on social media but that is not real; that will have to change because no one has the perfect life. I also like to show many things from my personal life including my friends, and my travels.
Favorite brands / places to shop?
I try to support local brands a lot and I love to buy from small brands.
A movie you can watch on repeat?
My Girl.
What’s your go-to airport look? Essentials to pack in a carry on?
Very basic. The most important thing for me is to be comfortable and that I don’t get cold on the plane. I usually travel with sneakers, comfortable pants, and a large hoodie. In my carry-on I always put my valuables such as jewelry or luxury purses.
What was the highlight of your stay with Modeliste at Guaycura Boutique Hotel Beach Club & Spa?
The highlight for me was the amazing attention to detail by the hotel staff. I loved sharing this special time with the other girls who are also working on the same thing as me and exchanging ideas on how to create content.
What’s a typical work day like for you?
Every day is different, but my mornings are almost always the same. I wake up at 7:30, have breakfast and go to the gym and then I organize my day.
What’s your everyday make-up routine? Any products you’d recommend for our Modeliste readers?
More than a make-up routine I have a skincare routine. I don’t wear much makeup but my skincare routine is a must.
What’s something your fans would be surprised to know about you?
I have told my followers that I suffer a lot of anxiety but I think they would be surprised if they saw me in a public place. I find it very difficult to be in places with a lot of people and suffer from social anxiety. I feel very uncomfortable quickly and always end up going home earlier than planned.
Where do you gain inspiration for content? Any tips & tricks you’d like to share for those aspiring to have a career like your own?
The tip I always give is to be authentic. Never pretend to be someone you are not, don’t try to be perfect. Followers can feel when someone is not real. You do not create an organic engagement with your followers, and it affects your personal side too much. It’s depressing to show a life that is not actually yours.
What would you like to say to your fans?
Facing your fears and leaving your comfort zone is the only way to see big changes in your life. You’ll have great internal as well as external rewards.
