When I was younger, most people thought my lips looked like Tweety Bird's - there were always comments like that from family and neighbors.

Modelling has really helped build my confidence.

I'm a really natural person; I love nature.

I was actually always really self-conscious about my gap. In middle school, this group of girls were always trying to beat me up - they called my gap a parking lot. It was a really awkward time.

I don't believe in putting petroleum or preservatives on my skin. Over time, you kind of just want to go back to basics.

Being nervous is a waste of time.

I try to be extra creative with the colors and textures I wear during fashion week. It's not for street style, though; I just like dressing sometimes.
