When did you first get into modeling?
I got scouted in September.
If you weren’t a model, what would you be?
A pilot in the air force.
As there are lots of misconceptions about modeling, I’d like to ask you what the best (and worst) part of your job really is.
When I say that I’m a model, people normally ask me If I’m homosexual. I hate this kind of clichés, I hate when people take things for granted.
Do you have any ‘secret talents’?
Yes, but if I said it, it would no longer be a secret.
New or recycled?
Recycled, everything has its own story!
What’s your spirit animal?
My spirit animal is ‘Spirit’, a famous horse, and sometimes I’d like to be a bear.

Has your personal style changed since you started modeling?
Not too much, it stayed more or less the same.
What’s that one thing you had to wear for a job and wished you could bring home?
It’s a very warm and cool jacket. I wore it when I had to do a campaign, and I would have brought it home with me.
