How did you begin your career?
I started sharing my everyday looks on social media, Instagram in particular, and within months I grew an audience that consistently engaged with my posts. The rest is history.
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)?
Through my social media platform, I aim to inspire and empower individuals by providing meaningful and valuable content. I hope to influence people by fostering positivity, promoting personal growth, and encouraging thoughtful discussions. Ultimately, my goal is to make a positive impact, spark inspiration, and help people navigate their journey towards a happier and fashionable life.
Any upcoming travel plans you’re looking forward to this year?
Yes, I love traveling and experiencing different cities, cultures, cuisines. At the moment we are planning Europe: Italy and France are on the list.
Favorite brands and places to shop for your favorite Summer looks?
There are so many amazing brands on the market. To name a few: Retrofete, COS, Shona joy, Sandro, and many more.
What was the highlight of your trip to Greece with Modeliste?
Where do I start… The highlight of my trip to Greece with Modeliste was undoubtedly the opportunity to meet lovely girls and build new friendships. Additionally, immersing myself in the vibrant Greek culture and experiencing the various activities available added a special charm to the journey. The hotel we stayed at significantly contributed to the overall enjoyment of my trip.
What did you love the most about your flight experience with Turkish Airlines?
My flight experience with Turkish Airlines was impeccable: in-flight comfort, delicious cuisine, award-winning service, in-flight entertainment and most definitely Turkish hospitality – warm and welcoming atmosphere.
What was your favorite aspect of the Nikki Beach Porto Heli property?
My favorite part of the Nikki Beach Porto Heli Hotel was undoubtedly the combination of several delightful aspects. Firstly, I was captivated by the earthy decor that adorned the hotel, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. The friendly and accommodating staff added to the overall experience, making me feel welcomed and well taken care of throughout my stay. The spacious rooms provided comfort and relaxation, allowing me to unwind and rejuvenate after a day of exploring. The culinary delights served at the hotel’s restaurant also left a lasting impression, as the delicious food surpassed my expectations.
What’s your go-to airport look? Essentials to pack in a carry-on?
My go-to look would be comfy leggings, hoodie, warm socks and new balance 530. To be honest I have been traveling with only a carry-on (even for a week long trips), so I pack my daily skin care and makeup in travel size form and everything else I need on that particular trip.
Girls night in or Girls night out?
Girls night out.
What’s a typical work week like for you? Any advice for staying productive throughout the week?
My typical work week consists of work-family balance. I plan out 3-4 full days of work, depending on the projects I’m working on. I love to hand write every task and cross it off as I go. Try not to overpack the days with tasks, but concentrate on 3-5 mains and make sure to complete them.
What’s your go-to makeup routine? Any products you’d recommend for our Modeliste readers?
I always try to start with a mini face massage but applying a little bit of oil and using Gua Sha tool to de-puff (Derma E has a great one). I follow with serum, eye cream and face cream. I keep it simple and minimal.
What’s something your followers would be surprised to know about you?
I was born in the Ukraine. A lot of times people think I’m from South America (I take it as a compliment).
Where do you gain inspiration for content? Any tips & tricks you’d like to share for those inspiring to have a career like your own?
I find my inspiration in the world around me. Everyday life presents countless opportunities to observe and appreciate different colors, textures, patterns, and styles. Whether it’s a vibrant sunset or the architecture of the city, I’m constantly inspired by the video aesthetics. I would definitely recommend experimenting and taking risks: Don’t be afraid to try new approaches, experiment with different formats, and take calculated risks. It’s through experimentation that you can discover your strengths and find your creative style.
What makes you different from other content creators?
All content creators are unique in their own way. What makes me different as a content creator is the combination of my creativity, expertise, dedication, and authenticity. I am committed to providing valuable and enjoyable content that leaves a lasting impact on my viewers.
What would you like to say to your fans/followers?
First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude for your support and engagement. It’s truly humbling to have such a wonderful community of individuals who appreciate and find value in the content I generate. Your enthusiasm and encouragement mean the world to me. Each one of you has something special to offer to the world. Follow your passions, explore your interests, and never be afraid to take risks or pursue your dreams. Believe in yourself and your abilities, for you have the power to overcome challenges and achieve greatness. Remember that failure is not a setback but an opportunity to learn and grow. Stay resilient, persistent, and dedicated to your goals.
