What motivates you in your modelling career?
My mother motivates me in my modelling career. She always tell me that I can do anything I want in this life and use my talent that God has given me. She always encourages me to do better at all time. My mother is my daily inspiration!
What is the most challenging part you ever witnessed in modelling?
Being rejected several times because of my height has been the most difficult part in my modelling journey. It is very hard to seek opportunities, people shut you down which gives us less opportunities. Modelling agencies nowadays are very biased, they choose certain type of people.
