Describe your style: Usually it’s very funky, and I just piece together everything I like. I just wear what I like without really considering what others might think.

Fashion trends you love: I really love that the old is mixing with the new, currently.

Fashion trends you hate: Cargo pants

Fashion influences: I like a lot of the popular women in the ’90s. I like their fashion, but then I also wear a lot of more masculine outfits.

What are your favorite and least favorite things about Lawrence? My favorite — I love that this town is very artsy, and what I dislike… I guess I just love it here.

Tattoos or piercings: Just my ears pierced, sadly.

What’s your spirit animal? I would probably say a bear cub because they’re very cute and easily scared.

Whom do people say you look like? My sister says that I look like a young Lisa Bonet sometimes. I don’t believe that, but she says that.

Tell us a secret: I only wear my hair up so I don’t have to wash it.
