Were you scouted? Yes, I was scouted. It happened at an event called AULA in my country. It’s an event where you get information about universities and different degrees. I was a bit surprised because I didn’t look the part that day. I was also scouted by another agency a few months ago, but ended up choosing Elite.

When did you first want to become a model? Growing up I always thought of becoming a scientist or videogame creator - modelling was the last thing on my mind!

How did you feel when you found out you were going to the World Final? Shocked! There were so many other great people with lots of potential. At the time I had barely done any test shoots and had little experience. Nevertheless, I was happy to participate. It’s a huge opportunity.

What was the last app you opened today? Spotify.

What are your hobbies and interests? I love videogames, music, reading and I'm very passionate about biology.

Are you a morning person or night owl? Honestly somewhere in between. 

Describe your personal style in one sentence: Big pants!

Top 3 artists in your rotation right now: Yung Lean, Bladee and Metrika.

What film or TV show can you quote line for line? Maybe not line for line, but I’m a huge fan of South Park.

Are you in school? I just finished my second year of university. I'm studying Biology.

Tell us about a cause you care about: The maintenance and quality of public services such as public healthcare and public education. Most people can't afford to pay thousands and thousands of euros in order to get the education they want but still have the right to access it.

What would be your dream career if modelling did not exist? A biomedical/microbiology researcher, that's my current goal and what I'm studying to achieve.

Vacation - beach, mountains or city break? Beach.

How much do you like to prepare? I plan first and then wing it! 

How phone addicted are you? My phone is always on me.
