About Model

I’m a proud Brazilian–Italian living in Sydney, Australia—juggling life as a busy mum of two while working in hospitality and pursuing my lifelong passion for modelling. At 40, after losing 15kg and reclaiming my confidence, I finally stepped into the world I had always dreamed of. I began modelling just a year and a half ago, proving to myself that it’s never too late to reinvent your life or chase a dream you once thought was out of reach. My journey represents resilience, transformation, and the power of believing in your own story. I want to inspire other women—especially mothers—to remember that beauty, ambition, and self-expression have no age limit. Winning this competition and traveling to New York would be an incredible milestone, not only for my career but for every woman who’s ever been told it’s “too late.”
