Birthplace

What is your astrological sign? 

Taurus/Aries cusp, my birthday is on April 21st. Sagittarius rising, my friends are really interested in astrology.

What are you excited about most this fashion season? 

The New York weather has been warmer than in past seasons. It makes it a lot easier running around the city when you’re not completely freezing. Other than that, it’s only my second season in New York. Since my hometown is nearby, it’s exciting to still be home even while working so much.

What’s something people would be surprised to know about you? 

I was a national finalist for poetry two years in a row during high school for the Scholastic Writing Awards. If you remember, they were the book fairs that used to come to school. I don’t think I come off as a writer, I’m extremely goofy.

What are you wearing today? 

I’m wearing a big canvas Carhartt jacket, covered by my Prada jacket.

What are your goals for 2020?

Drinking a lot more water might be at the top of the list. Trying to walk more, and uber less — budget my money better. Honestly, I’m just trying to be more of an “adult” in general. I’m really starting to love the idea of staying in and not going out. That’s a pretty awesome feeling.
