Name: Alisa Znarok
Nationality: Latvian
Agency: Profile Model Management
How did you become a model?
A model scout came up to me when I was in school and invited me to join a modelling agency.
Who is your favourite designer?
I can’t really tell. I like to mix high fashion designers with street fashion.
What do you wear on your days off?
The same thing I wear on castings. Sometimes it’s something trendy and stylish if I’m the mood for dressing up, sometimes it’s just an oversized sweater with jeans. It really depends on my mood.
What book, movie or song means the most to you?
I think by telling your favourite song or book it reveals a lot of you and how you feel at this point in your life. I have a great song for every moment and music means a lot to me, but as my life changes my favorite songs are changing too. Books have more meaning to me, it’s very hard to tell which one means most to me. If I had to choose, it would be The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde, a very powerful book.
Who are your heroes in life?
My parents and older sister.
What is your present state of mind?
I’m grateful for everything life had given me and looking forward to even better things to happen.
What is your idea of happiness?
My idea of happiness is having my beloved ones close to me and seeing them happy, being in peace, cozy and loved.
How would you like to be perceived by others?
I’m trying to learn to not care about it – everyone is different with different opinions.
If you were not a model, what would you be?
I would be an interior designer.
What advice do you have for other models?
To be patient and disciplined 🙂
