Are there any motivational quotes that you live by?
You are definitely our girl crush, but we want to know who’s your personal girl crush?
Eva Chen! She’s more like a role model to me. She juggles different roles in life and I feel so relatable with her. Working in a tech company, being a mom, and still able to do her own personal project. She inspires and empowers women like me who believe that women shouldn’t stop making progress, that nothing should hold her back to achieve personal goals. Aside from that I love how she’s keeping things real, not pretentious, always true to herself and authentic, and of course, I love her sense of style!
