I was always into fashion because my mom has always been interested in fashion. She majored in fashion merchandising in college, and it’s always been something we have in common.

I’ve been able to go so many places. I had the opportunity to go to Hong Kong when I was thirteen years old which is crazy. I lived there for three months. It was amazing. I couldn’t ask for a more enriched life so far.

I was being groomed to be a tennis player for sure. My grandparents and parents realised I had a natural athletic ability and if I was forced to do it, I could probably do well. But all I wanted was to play pretend.

I’m always able to find light moments on any set, no matter what. Just because a scene is heavy doesn’t mean that you have to be heavy, all day long. I was working with people who had a sense of humor and wanted to have those light moments with me.
