What’s your vibe?
“Sunshine and house music.”
Do you flirt with danger?
“I would say I flirt with mischief.”
What wrecks you?
“It baffles me when I see people choosing to put others down just to give themselves more self-esteem.”
Jacket and Pants Celine.
Who do you idolize?
“Drake—just playing, only sometimes. My dad for the man he is, because of the work he has been able to create, and how he’s handled it all. My mom for the woman she is, her patience, and her want to help others.”
What’s your favorite place?
“Europe all the time (but especially in the summer).”
What do you study?
“School most of the time—acting, music, DJing, tennis. Architecture if you count admiring.”
What gets you going?
“People who are truly passionate—when you can see someone’s passion bursting through their ears and lighting up through their eyes.”
Jacket, Pants, and Shoes Celine.
Are you thirsty?
“For water, yes. Nah, that was a bad joke. I would say I’m quite thirsty for life, but I’m also trying to be content with trusting in “time.” My parents talk to me about that, how things will play out, but it’s easier said than done.”
What’s wrong with the world?
“People take things too seriously, and that includes myself. A good goal is trying to laugh more and help each other out more often. Things work better that way.’
Jacket, T-shirt, Pants, and Belt Coach.
What’s your version of happiness?
“A tikka masala with the boys on top of the Burj. It’s a meme.”
What’s your favorite taste?
“Strawberry pavlova with vanilla ice cream.”
What do you do when it hurts?
“I usually talk to my family then make a bowl of ice cream and watch Netflix. (But I also do that when it doesn’t hurt).”
T-shirt, Jeans, Belt, and Scarf (worn in pocket) Givenchy by Sarah Burton.
What have you outgrown?
“Stuffed animals, for the most part.”
What haunts you?
“Spiders.”
What do you crave?
“The feeling of working hard to be able to play. Something I want to push towards in my life and career is gaining the respect of people I respect. That list evolves every year.”
Sweater, Jeans, and Shoes Prada.
Do you want to be famous?
“Famous in a lasting way. I want to continue to build on a legacy that I have the privilege to carry on.”
Where’s your soft spot?
“My stomach.”
