Happy to have you feature on Playboy! Can you give us a bit of a background on your career as a model and where it all started?
It started once upon a time in Carnaval in Rio where I had the chance to be a muse. That experience gave me such a boost and gave me the feeling that this is what you wanted in my life. Not only because of being in the center of attention, but also because I felt I would be able to make a difference in the world, where many women, and especially black women, do not get the chance to live their dream.
What are some of your best career highlights so far?
That was really when I moved from being a muse to becoming the queen of the samba school Unidos da Ponte. At this moment I really discovered how I could show everything that I have inside me and grab people's attention.
Social media is a very powerful tool, given your massive following, what are some of the challenges you face when it comes to marketing your brand and maintaining a solid following?
First of all, I experience all the good and bad of having a large following on social media. But I want to be a force for change and encourage other people to show and share their beliefs and passion to inspire others to also live a better life.
Can you give us a breakdown of a typical day in the life of a glamourous model on set?
