From being a model to a presenter, you have come a long way in the world of glamour. How did you decide to be into this glitzy field? What attracted you the most?

I have always been passionate about storytelling and journalism. I started my career through luxury lifestyle blogging back in 2014. On the blog, my team and I created our own video content. I really enjoyed interviewing people and working with various luxury brands and so that passion has always been there.

You’re an established fashion model. Kindly share some upcoming trends in fashion.

Monochrome- this trend is starting to become popular with some of the fashion brands that I work with. This was trending on the SS 21 runways, I feel that it will be big this year. The plus point with monochrome is that it also matches with most accessories!

What is that one thing you want to change in the fashion industry, if you had to and why?

It has to be making sustainability essential. I work closely with a few sustainable, luxury brands, and see how much of a positive influence these brands have on not only the environment, but also on the communities that they involve with while working. I think that post Covid, people shall vouch for sustainability in all spheres of their lives and embrace it more.

You have endorsed products in the past. What do you look for while selecting that to endorse?

I only work with brands that I truly believe in and see a reflection of myself in. Most, (but not all) of the brands that I work with are sustainable. This is something that I will be championing more throughout 2021.

Modelling, hosting and YouTubing: what did you enjoy the most and why?

I have enjoyed all three, and each has transpired different experiences. I have had the opportunity to work with some incredible people. I really enjoy creating my own projects- I simply love the process which starts from just an idea and manifests into something that I am really proud of.

You have travelled across the globe. Kindly share a memorable experience. What are your recommendations for travel?

Maldives is one of my favourite places - the people, the food, the beauty of the islands and the ocean is what made it a memorable experience. I am an ambassador for luxury resort Soneva, one of the first luxury resorts in the world to practise sustainability. I’d highly recommend to anyone who is planning on heading over to the Maldives to visit there.

Kindly elaborate on your future goals and upcoming collaborations.

I have some exciting fashion collaborations coming up and I am also working on a documentary. I can’t share much at this stage, but it’s something that I am incredibly passionate about and very excited to share when the time comes.

What keeps you going so calmly with a great physique? Kindly share some fitness secrets.

I practice gratitude daily, which helps me to keep up with a positive mindset. I run a few kilometres every day.
