She believes that a journey of a beauty queen is not easy as people assume it to be; there are very ups and downs throughout but if one wants to be at the top, they must keep going and prove themselves.

On asking about what advise she’d like to give to the new and aspiring models, she stated, “If you think of yourself. If you hear a lot from people that you have a unique face then you should definitely take a chance as a model.” She is strong, confident, and beautiful who can be a strong representative of the country at the international platforms.
