Whats your dream booking: It’s important for me to get involved creatively, so it would probably be a collaborative project with a brand.

Who’s your favourite fashion icon: To me it’s all about individuality and having an original look which allows the personality to shine through. I guess it would be Ellen, as she is very true to herself, in terms of her style and personality and after all those years in the Industry she still kept her great energy and incredible work-ethic.

What do you do for fun: I still freelance in Fine Art & Illustration, and art and design never fail to spark my interest, from galleries/exhibitions to fashion related events, being out and about is very much my thing. Also, absolutely love a good gig.  Therefore, my current project is ‘Leave Your Morals at the Door’ on 15 January, where I will be exhibiting my artwork in combination with a Rock’n’Roll gig by Todd Dorigo at Scotch of St James.

Whats the best thing about being you:  I enjoy collaborating and getting involved in creative work and working with inspiring individuals is the most amazing part of being in the industry.
