'I was coming out of high school, I still had my volleyball body,' says the 24-year-old supermodel (via toofab)

, who modeled herself back in the day, actually gave her her first real shot at success.

"And that wasn't just in the industry -- she always allowed me to be creative growing up, she had such a positive impact and always encouraged me to express myself in any way, whether that was cooking, drawing, trying to learn how to sew or letting me use and break her cameras," Gigi explained, adding that her list of mentors has grown since then. "But I think as I've got older in my career, I'd say Carine Roitfeld and Stephen Gan.

Though she's passionate about what she does, she's not pigeonholing herself. She may want to explore other aspects of the industry, switch industries and/or focus on having children. "I think that as I get older... well one day I'll start a family and I don't know if I will always be modelling. I love the creative side of fashion, it's so fulfilling," she said. "The people I work with make me so happy, I'm so lucky to be around them. But who knows? Maybe I'll take up full time cooking!"When asked what she cooks for people to make them happy, the model replied, "It depends on the person.

"Those really special moments at work where you're just like, 'Wow, this is why I did this job.' I think that that's the same feeling I get when I'm sitting around with friends, or painting or, or making the people I love dinner," she said. "I think just making something for other people, and making other people happy. It's really fun and I try to create little moments like that in my life all the time.
