Give us a quick introduction into your personality?
A simple, down to earth lady who knows what she wants. Stubborn and very career driven who would rather wear sneakers then heels.

What can you normally be found doing on the weekends?
Working of course, or in the gym.

How would you best sum up working with Lyle Simes for this feature?
Always a laugh. Working with Lyle is like doing what you are passionate about with your best friend. He is the most amazing photographer and allows a natural beauty to come out of whoever he shoots, and he never over edits.

Where would you like to see your modeling career take you?
Modeling for me now is more of a passion than a career, if it takes me on a crazy fun adventure then I’m ready for the challenge.

What is your favorite Action Sport?
It would have to be Skateboarding, as it was my teenage years hobby and it takes skill, practice and determination to master.

What scares you?
Sharks. My biggest fear and a challenge I intend on facing by December.

What are your do’s and don’ts when it comes to dating?
Do – Let me do my thing, less soppy moments and more fun and creative moments.
Don’t – Don’t smother me, don’t chew loudly and don’t be more of a girl than I am.
Oh and you have to eat the orange wine gums in the roll for me.

Have you ever used your good looks the get yourself out of trouble?
Of course. Whoever says no is lying. On a building site handover I had no safety vest, hard hat or safety boots (what girl owns these), instead of being kicked off site I did the eyelash flatter and was able to continue.

When you were younger, what was your dream job?
My dream job a few years ago was to join the British Army and become an Airforce Pilot.

What advise would you give to your 15 year old self?
School ain’t that bad and enjoy your teenage years, stop trying to grow up so quickly.

With Winter knocking on the door, what are your pros and cons of the cold season?
Cold season? I’m from KZN, we don’t have winter’s. But for the less hotter days, pros would be being cuddled up in bed while watching series and not needing aircon. Cons hmmm…. I like KZN winter’s so no cons.

Where is your dream holiday destination?
The UK, to see Warner Bros studios and the set of Harry Potter #nerdalert.
