She's All That

Multitalented as she is, Daiyan Trisha has never been one to let fame get to her head. She continues to hustle and achieve one dream at a time

Speaking to Daiyan Trisha is like hanging out with a friend as she’s approachable, open and laughs a lot, especially when she reminisced those days growing up with her siblings with whom she’s close to till today. “I was such a nerd,” she laughs. “When I was little, my sisters and I were all about anime and comic books. And when we go to people’s houses (for visitation) we were these nerds who would rather read comic books than socialise!” She insists that she still can be nerdy sometimes, particularly when people catch her off guard on camera and she’s “just being myself.”

However, any signs of said trait were not present throughout the day I spent with her in the park for this shoot. She was game for anything the photographer required of her, from twirling, jumping and running to climbing up trees—all under the hot sun, no less (disclaimer: no plants or trees were harmed during the production of this photo shoot). Any lesser being would have withered. But not this spunky 27-year-old, whose beaming smile never faltered while shooting was underway.
