As child, what did you think you wanted to be?
I was really in to horseback riding when I was younger and had dreams of becoming an Olympic Equestrian.
What’s the chorus of your all time favourite song?
Sia - Elastic Heart
“And I want it I want my life so bad I’m doing everything I can” (I have this tattooed on my left arm)
What is something you wouldn’t want to change about yourself?
My freckles! (which wasn’t always the case growing up). But I do remember my mom would always sugar coat it and say “they’re kisses from the sun” to make me feel better when kids would make fun of them. It’s taken some time to feel good in my skin but i am honoured to be able to have something passed down to me and connects me to my mom and hers and so on.
