How did you become a model? And why?
I had been scouted lots while out and about but I was too young then. I was scouted by The Hive Management actually on Instagram a couple of years ago and that was the right time for me. It is a great way to travel and meet lots of new people.
Have you always wanted to be a model?
I never thought it was possible! I was sure I wanted to go to university and I am lucky I can juggle modelling with my studies.
Who are your heroes in life and in modelling?
I really admire the amazing talent and personality of Nigel Kennedy and Chris Hadfield. In the modelling world I think make-up and hair artists are real heroes. They make you look your best and really look after you on shoots.

What is your idea of happiness?
Gettig home after a fun day working, relaxing in my pyjamas and watching a good film.
How would you like to be perceived by others?
Kind, polite and intelligent.

If you were not a model, what would you be?
Maybe an actor. But I garden in my spare time so possibly a horticulturalist. Getting paid to garden would be bliss.
What do you miss most when you’re travelling?
My family, dog and piano.
What is your favourite song or songs to walk to?
For my “I need to be somewhere super quick” pace it would have to be Paul Simon’s You Can Call Me Al. It has the best quick walk beat. For my relaxing walks, I listen to Tristan und Isolde Liebestod as well as Radiohead’s Fake Plastic Trees, my all time favourite song.
What would you say is the biggest myth or misperception about being a model?
That models don’t eat much. I love my food, especially dessert.
