Creativity

I have been passionate about fashion for as long as I can remember, and I've had the pleasure of modeling for the past two years. However, my interests extend beyond the runway; I am deeply committed to sustainability and climate change. By merging my love for fashion with my dedication to the environment, I focus on supporting and highlighting sustainable fashion. My goal is to make eco-friendly choices more accessible and desirable, showcasing how stylish and impactful sustainable fashion can be.

I'm also excited to start my own podcast which delves into key topics like sustainability, mental health, youth troubles, fashion, gender, and other related topics. Aimed primarily at young people and young adults, the podcast will address the many challenges faced during these formative years. Drawing from my firsthand experiences in areas such as sustainability, fashion, and gendered issues, my goal is to create an engaging and insightful platform that resonates with listeners and provides valuable perspectives on these crucial subjects.
