"I have always been a bit bigger than my friends but never had a problem with the way I looked. When I went to high school I was bullied which had a huge impact on my mental health and the way I saw myself. I started struggling with depression and an eating disorder. During lockdown I started posting photos and videos on social media about fashion and what it looked like on my body type. I was receiving lots of kind messages of people saying they look up to me or find inspiration in what I post. I started modelling and instantly fell in love with it. I wish I would’ve seen more people with the same body type as me in magazines or in the fashion industry growing up. I hope I can keep inspiring people by showing them that you don’t have to be a size 0 to be a model, and that every body is beautiful and unique."
