Who represents you with regard to acting? Kids London Ltd
Why did you decide to start modelling? It all kind of happened by accident. I was signed at the age of seven for modelling after having been asked to submit some photos to Kids London Ltd. I then joined Spotlight via Kids London and that resulted in being asked to cast for commercial & acting roles……as they say, the rest is history!
What is the best part about being a model? I love the fact that I get to meet new people. Wearing different clothes than I would not normally get to wear is great fun. I also really enjoy shooting for editorials.
Which has been your favourite shoot to date? It’s very hard to pick just one but if I had to it would be an Editorial for Luna Magazine called “Traveling Circus” By photographer Jay Fenwick, styled by Yvadney Davis and the was MUA Amy Sachon. I got to combine my love of modelling & contortion in one project.
What brands have you modelled for so far? Next, Loud Apparel, Fatface, Luna, Hooligans Magazine, Hazzys & Flakiki.
If you could work with any brand which would be top on your list? Urban Outfitters. I just love the styles.
Which is your top fashion magazine/blog? It would have to be Luna magazine as this was my very first modelling job which resulted in me getting the cover & a beautiful editorial story by the amazing photographer Lol Johnson, styled by Yvadney, and MUA Pauline Briscoe. I am also very grateful to Junior Style London for all of their support over the last few years.
Which models do you look up to for inspiration? I really get inspired by other models around my age. I love seeing what projects they have been working on. It’s so good to see other models I have met doing well.
Can you tell me a little more about your work as an actor? I have been in the following Series: “The Wheel of Time” For Amazon Prime, “The Gold” For BBC, “Willow’ For Disney+
I recently finished filming a 6-month, 8-episode project for Amazon Prime which will be released in 2024. This was such a cool role to play as my character is very naughty. I am currently filming a lead role in a 5 episode project for Disney+
What is your favourite item in your closet? Flared Cargos Pants.
Who is your role model? There are too many to mention! I am incredibly blessed to have met so many amazing people along the way on what has been a very crazy but extremely cool few years so far. I feel so lucky.
How often do you train with regard to being a contortionist? Most days I do some form of training and stretching. I train most weeks in London with my contortionist trainer, Pixie Le Knot. However, this depends on my modelling & acting commitments.
What is it that you like about being a contortionist? How people react to my bendiness and seeing what positions I can get into with my body! I also really enjoy performing in London shows.
What are your favourite subjects at school? Drama, PE & English.
Do you speak any languages? I am currently learning French at school. This year I went on a school trip to St Malo which is in the North of France. This Summer I am filming a series in the South of France.
You are a busy young lady, what do you do in your spare time? What are your hobbies? I enjoy contortion, circus arts & gymnastics
If you could have 3 wishes, what would they be?
To go to the Maldives!
To keep growing as an actress & have a long modelling & acting career.
A home for anyone who is homeless; everyone should have a safe home.
If you could meet anyone in the world who would it be? That’s a hard one! Perhaps David Attenborough because he would have interesting stories to tell about everything he has done and everywhere he has been.
What is your biggest dream? To have a long, successful modelling & acting career and to one day write and direct my own project.
What is the last book your read & film you saw? I read The Bone Sparrow for English & I saw the Barbie Movie on the last day of term with all my school friends.
