How long have you been modeling?
I attended my first TFP shoot at the age of 19.

Where are you from originally?
I was educated at both school and university level in London. My dad’s side relocated from Iran in the late 1980s, while my maternal family is originally from India. Regrettably, I have not returned to either country since the age of two, and as I was educated exclusively in English-speaking schools, I did not retain fluency in my parents’ native languages.

Do you have an unusual talent or party trick?
I create edible art and have shared examples of my work across my social media platforms.

What would surprise people to know about you?
I hold a degree in Education and worked as a primary school teacher for several years.

What are your modeling ambitions?
My aspiration is to pursue a career as a catwalk model, with the goal of walking in London, Paris, Milan, and New York Fashion Weeks.
