Tell us a little bit about yourself?

At 22 years of age, I have grown up in the beautiful Burleigh Heads. Surrounded by a small circle of family and friends, just how I like it. I thrive off being around people who keep me grounded, tell me how it is, but also can delve into sensitivity, as this gal is very in touch with her emotions. Something coconut margi’s can’t always fix, but emotional and intellectual moments with other people. 

Who or what inspires you most?

In all honesty, I don’t have one particular person who inspires me most. But people who know what they want, and don’t stop till they get it, that’s what inspires me.

Amongst the criticism, the fall backs, the continuity to get back up and stay focused is the best quality someone can have. 

What is something powerful that you believe?

“What is meant to be, will be” 

Where is your favourite place you have travelled to and why?

Palm Springs! 10000%. That place was a dream. From the palm trees, to the humidity, to the most beautiful houses I have EVER SEEN, completely immersed in the desert. Every detail was so aesthetically pleasing, my eyes couldn’t take it. Along with how great everything looked and was, the people were also so friendly, chilled and very hospitable. 

What is the most powerful quality someone can have?

The ability of communication. Pure. Honest. Real. No bullsh*t. Just two people being able to connect through communication is everything to me. 

What is something people assume about you that is false? 

Hmmmm. That is tough. I would probably have to say that most people think I am maybe more tougher than I look?!?! But really, this 22 year old is very sensitive and  still has a teddy bear in her bed that she got when she was first born, but shhh. 

Three things you are passionate about and why?

Love — I love, love! Breaks my heart knowing there are people out there that refuse it, don’t feel it, or have done something wrong in their life that makes them think they don’t deserve it. EVERYONE deserves love. 

Music — is everything to me right now. With everything going on in the world, at home, in my life. Music is my healthy escape.  Whether its dancing around in my living room in my underwear to Bill Withers, Lovely Day or belting out the sad tunes in the car. Music heals everything for me!! 

Coconut Margis — because hey. Everyone needs a little liquid upper in their life sometimes. So why not make it tasty! 

Tell us something that brought a smile to your face this week.

Reconnecting with a very close love of mine. 2020 has been quite the rollercoaster, not just for me but everyone.  But its finally looking up! Yaya.
