1. How to start a beginner if he wants to follow in Your footsteps?

To start modeling, a person needs to be passionate about the fashion world, posing, clothing and etc, do not be afraid to change locations, travel, meet new people everytime you travel and be open-minded, cosmopolitan. I would advise to start to look for a good reputation model agency who will help you with the trainings getting to know your good angles, how to control your face emotions, acting and catwalking. When you are ready, start going to some photoshoots to begin your lookbook - a portfolio that you could show when going to the castings and to be able to be hired. Also, do not push yourself too hard, do not lose your head, enjoy everything and feel happy - that is the most important! Do not overpush things. Of course, you need to work hard and put your heart to this work and follow your dreams, but try not to burnout.

2. What professional recommendations can you give to those who are just starting to develop in the modeling business?

If you have just started and it is just the beginning, try to learn everything quickly - then it will be so much easier in your future career. Also, learn who you should trust and who only wants to benefit from you. There will be a lot of new people surrounding you. Some will help you in the way, you will be so thankful for them and some will try to knock you down. Stand strong, do not lose your focus. When you have the first work trips, there will be a lot of distractions - parties, clubs, strangers- do not forget your duties, responsibilities and why you came there.

3. What rating will you give yourself as a model?

I see myself as someone who has learned a lot and I am valuable at this point in my career, but I also realize that I can learn even more. I have always been doing my best, putting all my heart to the work I am doing as modeling is both my work and passion. I think when there is not a high boundary between work and hobby, the person is performing in the best way possible at work and also often that exhaustment is satisfying.

4. Have you ever overstepped your principles in your professional life?

There are some principles that I have overstepped. For example, smoking during a photoshoot, even though I am a non-smoker.

But mostly I have my attitude and I stick to that. For example, if I am asked to lose weight, then I will ask them to go to hell :D

Also, I could mention the biggest tributes that I sacrificed for work. The most important one is my family, which rarely sees me. Also, my own personal relationship -  when I started my career its difficult to keep people who are waiting for you while you are always on the road. You know all these work trips, traveling to one country after another. I also lost some friends, maybe they were fake? The greatest tribute is the time that you sacrifice.

5. In any case, there are turning points. What did You have?

When I met my fiance. We accidentally saw each other at a charity event. We caught each other's eye. It turned my life completely.

Also, another changing point was that during the pandemic situation , we were for work in Marbella, where we decided to stay and lived there for few months during this quarantine period, when all my trips to Nyc, Milan, Toronto, Paris, was canceled. This period of time really reminded us of our values, put everything to places and made us appreciate everything that we have even more.

6. What prevents You from living, and what helps?

Maybe sometimes I do not trust people so much. I am friendly, easy going I love everyone but I am careful who I share my heart with and deepest thoughts, so on the other hand I’m super buttoned up and closed person. Nevertheless, what helps me is that I am a maximalist. I am taking everything that I can from life, use the opportunities and live my best life! One day I fly with a hot air balloon, another day jump with the parachute or go for a pilot flying.

Everything I do, I do with passion and full love for this life.

7. What is your dream?

After all the movement I had in my life my dream would be live with peace somewhere in country without winter, with lots of sun. Enjoy my time with family, to have some pets and never more be in rush.
