Well, I’m from Malibu and Malibu and New York are so different. It’s crazy to live on the beach my whole life and now be in an apartment building on the street. But I think that I’ve always been a city girl at heart, so it’s nice to finally be here and be able to take taxis and do things like that. In Malibu you just kind of take your car around and go to the beach. I love it here.
I just walked for Desigual during fashion week, which was really cool, and I’ve done a couple of editorials and stuff like that. Lisa [Diruocco, Hadid’s agent] is great and I’ve only been signed with IMG for two months now. I thought I was going to have a little bit of time to start off with school, but I just went right in there. It’s been busy, but it’s been really nice to start off strong.
It’s been really, really crazy. IMG has been so great about making sure I’m going to school, and they’ll schedule castings around my school schedule, but it’s been really intense. I definitely am up late, but I still have straight As, so I’m crossing my fingers it stays that way. It’s hard but I definitely want to stay in school and keep working and just try to balance all of it.
Absolutely. Before, when only my friends followed me, I didn’t have to be very conservative about what I posted. I definitely want to be a good role model to people, but the thing about me is I’m not going to post things that are BS. I want people to know who I am and my personality, which is weird and quirky and silly, and I want to make sure that’s portrayed, but also make sure it’s still light. I don’t put anything out there that I wouldn’t want anyone to see.
