What is your favorite thing about New York?

My favorite thing about New York is the hustle. It truly is the city that never sleeps and it’s helped me build a thick skin in more ways than one.

How many fashion weeks have you gone to? Which was your favorite?

Haven’t had the pleasure of experiencing fashion week yet but hope 2020 changes that. I’m a huge fan of the freedom fashion encourages and would love to be in the audience for shows by some of my favorite designers such as LaQuan Smith, Estaban Cortazar, and Prabal Gurung to name a few.

Tell us about your personal style.

Some days you can’t convince me to take off my Adidas track pants, hoodie, trench coat and boots. All black of course. Some days I want to be bold and rock super intricate designs with florals, textures, jewels, and vibrant colors. Other days, well, everything in between those two points.

Which designers do you wear for red carpet?

I’ve been fortunate to work with many incredibly talented designers, who are now also some of my favorites, like Bingjing Chen of BJ Couture, Isabel Lopez, Greta Constantine to name a few.
