When you hear the word ‘attractive’, what’s the first thing you think about?
I’d say eyes. To me, eyes are a really important feature in a person.
What’s one thing you constantly are forgetting and one thing you never go without?
I rarely forget things, especially when I think they’re important, but what’s essential to me is my little notebook.

If you had a superpower, what would it be?
The superpower of being able to use the 100% of my mental abilities.
How did you feel the first time you were hired as a model, and what was the occasion?
The first time I was hired as a model was for an Antidote Magazine’s project and I remember it was really fun!

What’s your best memory linked to this profession?
It’s not entirely linked to my profession, but it’s the memory of my first trip from Paris to Milan by train. That time I realised how big the world is.
If you were a mood, what one would describe you best?
It would be the mood I’m in when I carry out a project linked to my artistic universe. Whatever the project (it can be a video that I direct or make, some clothes that I customise or design, etc.), I just love creating. It makes me feel good.

Tell me, what does ‘home’ mean to you?
To me, ‘home’ means my whole environment. I live in France in a city called Vitry-Sur-Seine, near to Paris. My city is my home, because it’s where I grew up, where I made my first videos, etc. Even though I wasn’t born in Vitry, that’s where it all started.
What’s your favourite song?
I don’t have a favourite song, but my favorite rapper is Laylow, he’s a French rapper.
