How discovered: I was traveling around the world and Bill Heffner scouted me on the street in London.

Why do you choose to go to university while you're modeling?
To be able to feel more comfortable, that I'm actually doing something for my future while I'm modeling. At the end of my modeling career, I will have an education.

What fascinates you about the modeling industry?
In the beginning, I loved living in different countries, so modeling allowed me that opportunity to visit them. Now, I love that it allows me to get my degree.

Of all the countries you visited which people do you connect with the most?
Outside of Brazil itself, it would have to be the U.S. because I love the diversity of the races, the multiculturalism that exists here. I do things that I wasn't raised with like going to the opera or seeing plays, etc. I love the idea that you can reinvent yourself over and over again. New York definitely allows you to do that.

So what do you want to tell ME?
I have the coolest dog on earth, named Bidou (after a Brazilian cartoon character from my childhood). He's a Labradoodle (Labrador mixed with Standard Poodle). They are an Australian breed that is bred as a seeing eye dog with non-allergy causing fur (the Standard Poodle part). Bidou, obviously doesn't have any seeing eye dog duties. He eats toilet paper. But life with him is priceless.
