What are your interests and what do you enjoy doing the most?
I love going to the theater and cinema. I very much enjoy doing sports, especially swimming and fitness. Dancing is something else that I enjoy very much. Spending time with my friends, particpating in various volunteer organizations and doing modeling in my spare time are some of the things I enjoy doing the most.

Name one person other than your parents who has had the most influence on your life. Why?
In my life there is a special person who has always supported and advised me in every step I have taken; this person is my oldest sister. I think that some people make the wold a better place place just by being in it and I can say with no doubt that she makes my world better every day with her presence.

What is your career ambition and what are you doing or plan to do to accomplish that goal?
I love cinema and theater and my foremost career ambition is to become a successful movie director. I am preparing for this ambition and I am planning to enroll in the Academy of Arts in September. I know that it will ask for a tremendous amount of work, but I love to do it. I will put all my energy into it and will study and work hard to accomplish my goal.

Describe where you were raised and what your childhood was like.
Being raised in Tirana is a unique experience that makes you grow up strong and brave. What I've learned by living my childhood in my country is to recognize and give importance to the small emotional things that sometimes people don't value when they grow up. I have grown up by playing and sharing everything with my friends who I still consider the biggest treasures of my childhood. Even though we have never had fancy toys or big amusement parks like Disneyland, we have learned to share everything and have fun with what we have. Now I know that my childhood has been richer and much more beautiful because it has been full of real emotions.

What makes you unique and different from the other contestants?
I am part of the new generation that has made true and big changes in my country by doing what we believe is right. Although the prejudices we face everyday challenge us step by step, I believe that this has made me stronger and braver in admitting and doing what I think is right.
