How did you first get into modeling?
A friend told me that I could be a model and so I tried.
If you weren’t a model, what would you be?
Well, I wanted to be a football player.
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.
The most beautiful thing about my job is traveling around the world, but it could also be the worst part, as it means I have to stay away from my family for a long time.
Do you have any ‘secret talents’?
I like acting.
What’s your favourite song?
My favourite song is ‘Guarda come flexo’ by Mambolosco ft. Edo Fendi.
New or recycled?
New, for sure.
