I hate being categorized.

I was my worst critic ever.

I love documentaries and TED talks.

I hate when people say I Photoshop myself.

I think of the sun as my battery, my charger.

I don't like tan lines, and I work out a lot.

I love to show off my body, and I feel like I earned it.

I consider myself a nerd. I love science and technology.

I don't tan my face, ever, because I don't want sun spots.

I love being challenged, goofing off, and lots of passion.

Lighting is everything in order to get the 'perfect' selfie.

I was home-schooled my entire life and never been in a classroom.

My biggest thing is that I never want to sell out. Or be a sellout.

Mid-morning is a good time for selfies because of the natural light.

For my bikinis, the smaller the better. That's how I've always been.

People think I don't have substance and I'm just another pretty face.

Chemically, if you are not happy, your body will not look or be happy.

I love creating art, whether it's with photos, my own body, or clothes.

The idea of being a designer is always something that has intrigued me.

I accept my body, whether it fluctuates 10 pounds. I love it regardless.

I don't think that people should be confined to any particular aesthetic.

Because of how much I've gone through, I want to say I'm more wise than my age.

I like challenges, and I hate being categorized. It's always been a thing of mine.

If I can make a girl's day by hugging her, hell yeah, I'll hug the crap out of her.

I'm from L.A., and we don't usually get out of our workout clothes if we're in them.

I love a guy who knows who he is, can make me laugh, and challenges me intellectually.

I love talking about space, our society, and what the future holds for us as a civilization.

I always associate blonde with sunshine and puppies and happiness, but I don't think sexiness.

I've, like, lived in a bikini my entire life, so modeling bikinis was, I don't know. It was just so natural to me.

With acting, it wouldn't be about money: it would be about taking my life experiences and using them to create art.

People tend to judge a book by its cover. I love being unexpected and gaining respect for who I am and not how I look.

It's hard to gain respect in fashion, especially if you're coming from social media, so it's been challenging at times.

I was on Tumblr when I was 12 or 13. I was on YouTube, too. I had a channel and made music videos. It had 50,000 subscribers.

Pretty much the only thing I wear is either a little bit of concealer or a bronzer, and that's it. And highlighter, of course.

Coconut oil is my best friend - I put it all over my body every night. And in the morning, I wash it off so I'm not all greasy.

My all-time favorite TED talks are Brene Brown's 'The Power of Vulnerability' and Sir Ken Robinson's 'Do Schools Kill Creativity.'

I appreciate Love Advent because they like to experiment with creatively different concepts that are unforgettable and fun to shoot!

I have to get at least 20 minutes of sun every day. An hour is the best because it's good for you. You need it. I need it to have that little spark.

I would look at my profile and be like, 'Look at this girl! She has, like, the most perfect life!' and I would feel so guilty for not feeling blessed all the time.

I'm from Santa Monica, which was an awesome place to grow up. You're very spoiled being from California. When it's below 70, you complain. When it rains, you talk about it.

Looking up to girls for inspo is a beautiful thing, but comparing yourself is what creates the anxiety and self-hatred. It's really important that young girls know the difference.

I'm from L.A., and when you work out in the day, you usually stay in your workout clothes. So I always liked it where I can go to meetings in my workout clothes and still feel on it and fashionable.

I look up to Gigi Hadid. I love where she's taken herself, I love what brands she's working on. I respect her because I understand... I mean, girls like her open the doors for girls like me. So all I can do is thank her.

I started Instagramming, like, my model life, per se, when I was 14. I got into it as, like, this is an opportunity to be able to show yourself not just as a pretty face but as a personality, which I think models have never been able to have until now.

I started posting on my social media super-young. I didn't really understand what it was. When I was about 15, I started posting behind-the-scenes of shoots, little things of me holding up the color corrector, cute things, me in a bikini. It was just all innocent and fun, and I saw people really starting to respond to it.

I have this thing called my 'Post It People': they're my closest family members. Those are the ones who count. The ones who I put their word as something special to me. So if they're all like, 'No you're good, we love you, we know who you are as a person,' then I don't take anything else personally, 'cause those are the ones who matter - my family.
