Tell us about your Kiez?
Neukölln where I live with my best friend Laura. I absolutely love it’s cultural diversity and the fact that I have so many cheap restaurants around. My favorite hangout is everywhere around Admiralsbrücke and Kotti. My friends have a crazy rooftop there – in summer I’m there way too often.
Who would you absolutely love to model for?
ACNE – was my first model job when I was 16 and I’d do it again for sure, Adidas would be great, too!
If you were given one last meal to have for the rest of your life what would it be?
Indonesian Satay served in Pandan leaves – reminds me of my indo roots.
When you are not out and about modeling, what can we find you doing?
Hanging with my friends in bars, djing, studying at UdK
What advice can you give younger girls aspiring to become a model?
Never let anyone decide about you, your body or your future. Don’t compare with other girls and it’s all about empowerment. You will have the best time when you find real friends in that superficial business.
Dream date?
