1. How did you get into modeling?

I got chatting to Nige Rorbach through a friend of a friend on Instagram, and he suggested that we should try to do a shoot together. It isn’t something that I have a lot of experience with, but had a lot of fun working with Nige and think we got some great pictures. Should I do another shoot?!

2. What are you doing if you are not modeling?

I’m a dedicated dog dad, so a lot of long countryside walks as well as trying to use the gym as much as I can

3. The most spontaneous/difficult/strange thing you’ve ever done?

After lockdown, I got into Strongperson competitions, which includes things like lifting cars, carrying heavy sandbags, picking up atlas stones, that sort of thing., The hardest thing has been flipping a 350kg truck tyre

4. What’s your life motto?

Easy work (as in, you see a challenge, nope, its easy work)

5. Describe your personal style

Practical, weatherproof, lots of pockets but with a pair of sexy briefs underneath

6. What genre of music best describes you?

My musical highlight was watching Michael Kiwanuka play the PArk Stage at Galstonbury as the sun was setting, so I hope that. But realistically, probably some chaotic cheesy pop

7. Where are your roots – The best thing about/to do in your hometown?

I grew up in a tiny village of a few hundred people, so there wasn’t a lot to do! I’ve made up for lost time since, but still love the peace and quiet of living in the countryside.

8. Name one celebrity you’d like to get naughty with!

Ryan Gosling

9. Do you have any special Talents?

Apart from lifting cars? Well, I was grade 2 trumpet many years ago, does that count?!
