A typical day in my life includes…
working hard and having fun.
My favorite thing about Arizona… the Congress Hotel and Paula Taylor & Melanie Sutton bringing fashion there.
I’m listening to…
old school 80’s anything
My family…
keeps my whack-a-doodle roller skating feet on the ground…amazing.
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
the Little Mermaid.
One thing I cannot live without…
my true friends.
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
exactly who I’ve become. My dream came true.
I’m inspired by…
a rainbow in a puddle, the skate board park in NYC Chinatown, people watching.
The one person who motivates me is…
my mother, she tells me the real deal in my glittery life.
If I could change anything in the world, it would be…
we would all be the color clear and happy.
The perfect day would be…
laughing and opening my eyes, it’s a gift.
My first job was…
lemonade stand, baby!
My favorite escape…
my imagination.
I’m currently working on…
inspiring people and myself. That’s why I love fashion, art, and music. Life is tough out there.
Always…
dream.
Never…
doubt yourself.
Favorite Quote…
“Some things are the way I’ve never seen before, they’re the things I recognize” – Diane Arbus
Biggest Dream…
glitter in the sky always…that’s why we have stars.
My Pet Peeve(s)…
ignorant people.
