The blossoming businesswoman and stunning Aussie model shares a few of her favourite things and how she chooses to live her best life…
My favourite thing about being born and bred in the Australian outback is… the outlook it has given me on life. I love nature, have a big soft spot for all animals and I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty!
The best way I’d describe myself to someone is… I’m an entrepreneurial open minded woman who values the simple things, is humanistic and believes in contributing to society.
One thing people would be surprised to find out about me is… that I grew up in the country.
I chose to be a floral designer because… it was actually a side hobby! I was working full-time in a corporate position in the city and decided to do floristry on the weekends – it grew from there and became a full-time thing!
My dream job would be… to combine my love of nature and spirituality. I would be located in a rainforest in Bali helping others immerse themselves in nature and teaching meditating and relaxation.
If I could choose any career it would be… an artist!
When I’m not posing for MAXIM I am… working on myself, working out, doing fun activities, meditating or swimming under a waterfall somewhere.
In my spare time I… love to relax in nature or spend time with people I love.
The best way to relax is to… do something your soul truly loves!
One thing that always makes me laugh is… my friends – they’re so funny and we laugh uncontrollably when we’re in the presence of each other!
If I could have any superpower it would be… to fly! I love travelling and it would make my life so much easier if I could get to different locations quicker.
The first thing I notice about a man is… his confidence!
My ideal man is… someone who demonstrates kindness to those he loves.
A guy can really impress me by… showing kindness and respect to others.
