I would say I'm blessed genetically, but I also don't restrict myself from any types of food.

There aren't a lot of Portuguese models, so everyone always expects me to be Brazilian because of my features, sometimes even American, as I have a slight American accent when I speak English.

I shoot swimsuits and lingerie all the time, so I want to make sure I'm in the best shape. It makes me want to work out harder than usual.

I think people in the fashion industry need to listen more and not look the other way when someone has a voice. We need to stop sending girls and boys to photographers or professionals who are known to be abusive. There should be a much more controlled environment in place for young models to protect them, and this should be led and supported by professionals in the industry. We need to create an environment in which models feel safe sharing information about their on-set experiences, instead of being silenced.

I really don't think we should label models as 'plus' or 'runway.'

I'm obsessed with great white sharks. And I want to dive into the coral of the Great Barrier Reef.

When posing in lingerie, I suck everything in and pop my hip out a little bit. If you lie on your side and draw one knee in a bit, it makes you look more curvalicious.

I think we, as a fashion industry, need to hold people accountable for their actions. I want people to realize that models have a voice, and a powerful one at that. I want all models to be treated with more respect because that's what we all want - basic respect and to not be treated like objects with no will. I hope that models can be more empowered to say 'no' or give their opinion without being labeled as difficult. Modeling should be a collaboration. If the makeup artist, photographer and stylist all contribute, why can't models?

I think it's important to try to find the positives. Then, look at the things that you don't like and see if you can change them or not.

I'm like every other girl; there are things I wish I could change about my body, but I try not to think about them too much.

Models are people. A lot of people like to make us some species that are not human; we are normal people.

As women, we need to stand together. We are judged and objectified often enough by men.
