The public perception of modeling is glamourous and exciting. The reality is it’s much harder than it seems. The industry is highly competitive and depends heavily on being at the right place at the right time. Also, it doesn’t matter if you’re not feeling well, cold, hot, hungry, etc…, you have to ignore whatever is bothering you and put your best forward for the camera. I am where I am because of my hard work and I’m very proud of what I’ve achieved at 21 years old.

Given your obvious stunning good looks and striking features, tell us a bit more where you’re from.

I feel very fortunate because originally, I’m from Russia but have lived in the US for 3 years now. I’m lucky to have a Slavic heritage, which is highly appreciated in the modeling industry. Men love Russian women!

Tell us something surprising about you?

When people talk to me, they’re surprised to learn I’ve never taken any English language courses – I picked it up on my own. Most can’t tell Russian is my first language because I don’t have much of an accent, but they know when I say something and forget the prepositions. Also, I never work out. I’m one of the lucky few who are naturally slim and fit.

What would you say has been the most challenging thing for you thus far?
