Other important steps included participating in the World Championships of Performing Arts in Los Angeles, winning the world champion title, signing a contract with Marc Williams, and being invited to sing on the biggest stage in Las Vegas. My appearances at the Mamaia Festival and X Factor 2025, where I was highly appreciated, strengthened my recognition in Romania. In fashion, collaborating with Cătălin Botezatu both nationally and internationally, as well as runway shows in Milan, Paris, Spain, Cannes, and Dubai, gave me global experience and visibility.

C&B: What has been the most difficult moment in your journey so far, and how did you overcome it?

C&B: What were you like at the beginning, and how do you feel you have transformed over time?

Confidence and discipline were built with every stage I stepped on.

C&B: If we met your collaborators, what do you think they would say about you?
