I actually applied to Premier online after being scouted a couple times when I was younger and not really understanding anything about modelling then.

I didn’t have a massive interest but I obviously looked at the industry as being quite glamorous. It wasn’t anything that I was thinking about before I was discovered.

If you weren’t a model what would you be?
I’d still be in college doing my A-levels and I’m unsure on my future.

What are you up to these days besides modelling?
I play a lot of sport, football in particular. I also spend a lot of time doing college work.

Your dream modeling job?
I don’t really have a particular one in mind.

What have you learnt from the modelling industry?
I’ve definitely become more confident with meeting new people and travelling around London alone. It’s 100% helped me.

I would say that football is a large passion of mine. Whether watching or playing I just forget about everything else. As for hidden talents I have none that I’m aware of.

How would you describe your style?
My style is quite basic and easy. Hoodie and jeans is perfect for me. I’d like to try and mix up my style more though.

Who are your favourite designers?
I don’t have any in mind because I don’t wear many designer clothing.

What are your beauty essentials?
Again, I don’t have any because I rarely use any kind of beauty product.

Tokyo, Miami and Sydney.

What’s on your current playlist?
A lot of Dave. He’s definitely my favourite artist at the moment. I’ve also got a bit of Travis Scott, Avicii and a mixture of rappers and dance producers.

What are your future goals, dreams and plans?
A general future goal for me is to just be comfortable with what I’m doing. I’d hate to be doing something that I don’t like. As for plans, I have none at the moment. I’ve still got another 2 years of college left so I’ll see where I’m at towards the end of it.
