Get to know Miami’s most promising young models as Ocean Drive uncovers their city secrets.
Favorite Miami spot
Icebox Cafe. It is a super cute breakfast restaurant with my favorite coffee spot right next to it, Panther Coffee.
Hobbies
Hiking and swimming... or anything under the sun!
Three beauty essentials
My go-tos are mascara, blush and moisturizer. Perfect for a summer glow!
Favorite workout
Sumo deadlifts. I love working on my glutes, and it definitely gets the job done.
Style inspiration
Victoria Paris. She purposely dresses bold and different because ‘if you look like you don’t fit in anywhere, you will always stand out.’
Favorite Miami spot
I really love dinners at Komodo—they have amazing food and drink options, great indoor and outdoor ambiance and service that doesn’t disappoint.
Hobbies
I love painting, particularly making fluid art. The entire process is very therapeutic for me. Additionally, I love traveling, going out to eat, strolls and yacht cruises. If it involves nature, art and good food? Count me in.
Three beauty essentials
I love a good glow that enhances my natural beauty, so I use simple things like a hydrating body oil, clear moisturizing lip gloss and a daily dose of fruits and vegetables— essentials to keep me looking and feeling good from the inside-out!
Favorite workout
A simple walk does it for me—I could literally walk for hours and not realize it. I wait till it’s a little less sunny and somewhat cool outside, put my AirPods in with a chill playlist, and I’m good to go. It’s the easiest way to keep my abs and legs toned while I enjoy some sun, fresh air and discover new spots around me.
Favorite Miami spot
Crandon Park and the beach because I love to shoot there and I have had some of the best shoots with the best memories there.
Hobbies
Traveling to my favorite places around the world
Three beauty essentials
Bronzer that highlights my bone structure, a body shimmer that looks beautiful in the sun and sunscreen because it is a must in Miami!
Favorite workout
Pilates—I love how it tones and stretches my body.
Style inspiration
Elsa Hosk because her beautiful Instagram looks are my favorite!
Where we can find you in Miami
Biking around Miami Beach, usually down Ocean Drive and making a stop by South Pointe Park to watch the sunset.
Three essentials you can’t live without
Dancing—when I’m on set, I’m usually dancing in between shooting. My body just can’t stop moving when there’s music involved, even though I’m bad at it.
Adventure—making last-minute plans comes second nature to me. I’m adventurous by nature and it’s something I absolutely need. 3. Kindness—I value people and friends who are naturally kind and have a caring heart.
Best summer workout
Beach volleyball. It’s something you can do with friends, it’s easy, and before you know it, you’re working up a sweat.
Guilty pleasure
Watching cooking competition shows on the Food Network. It’s incredibly addicting watching chefs race against time to create mouthwatering dishes.
