How did you get into modelling and at what age?

I got into modeling at the age of 17, winning Elite Model Look Poland 1999.

Did your parents agree to let you travel and be in such shady industry?

Yes they did, as I was very responsible since a young age.

Did you have any dream job or other plans before getting into modelling?

I got into modeling very young, I didn’t really have other plans than to finish high school and go to university at the time.

Do you remember your first modelling job?

Unfortunately I don’t..

Do you have any favourite designers that you worked with?

Mr Valentino was definitely my favourite, I admire his sense of aesthetics and beauty.

What was the scariest experience for you as a model?

I had a few but it’s not the time and space to talk about it.

Out of all the models you met, who would you say you were the closest with?

I was friends with many girls, I loved seeing them and working together, learning from one and another. Traveling and experiencing the world together.

You had a very powerful walk during the 2000s. What did you think about whilst walking the runway?

Thank You! Well I guess not to trip for one, but mostly I just enjoyed it and tried to fulfill the designers wishes.
