1. How did you get into modeling?
It really all started circa 2015/2016. I was a server in a restaurant in downtown St. Pete, called Hofbrauhaus. It’s a German beer hall that’s interactive with the guests. For example, everytime I would serve a shot to a guest, I would bring it out on a paddle, and after they slammed it, they would bend over and get paddled on the ass by yours truly… lol Kinda kinky. Around Valentine’s Day, we were hosting an event called „Galentines“ for the ladies. Part of the event involved a Male Auction where the Gals would bid on the men, and try to win them for their date for the night. My manager wanted me to be a part of it, so I agreed. While on stage, I was noticed by photographer, Michael Downs IG: @themichaeldowns, and he asked if I ever considered modeling…fast forward, he was the first to shoot me and get me into modeling from there on out.
2. What are you doing if you are not modeling?
If I am not modeling, which is more often than modeling, I am working full time at my job, doing commercial roof sales and management. I also have a son and a daughter that keep me extremely busy. Fitness is my passion, so I am always in the gym, or doing something active; skateboarding, biking, exploring…Since I live near the ocean, I am often on my boat, booze cruising, island hopping, fishing, diving, etc. I spend a decent amount of time downtown st. pete for dinner, brunch, or drinks with friends or my smokin ‚hot girl, Karly. 😉 I also am a bit of a handyman, so i find myself spending time on home projects and improvements.
3. The most spontaneous/difficult/strange thing you’ve ever done?
One of the most spontaneous things I have done, was quit my job of 3 years that I wasn’t happy in-basically maxxed out the potential there, and move to Denver to do a sales gig with friends. It was definitely scary, and a risk, but all in all, it was fun. I learned a lot in the sales industry, as well as some things about myself. I stayed with them for a couple years before switching to something that didn’t require travel for my kids‘ sake. (Plus I missed my home)
4. What’s your life motto?
I wouldn’t really say I have a motto. But to date myself, I would say YOLO. Life is so short, and the older I get, the more I realize how precious it is. Spend time with your family as much as you can, be the one to reach out to old friends, rekindle friendships that are worth it. There are no do overs in this life. I am learning to take more chances, more risks, and try to enjoy my life and live it to the fullest. Money comes and goes; buy that plane ticket, take that trip. Life is about experiences and creating memories, and that’s what I will be aiming to do here on out. There ain’t so luggage rack on a hearse-go live your life.
5. Describe your personal style – Favorite Brands/Fragrance/or?
My style is really all over the place. I can range from a gym rat, to a beach bum, to a dapper gentleman. I like shopping at Express a lot. A lot of my casual wear comes from them. As far as fragrances go, I like armani code, gucci guilty, Dior Sauvage, Chanel Bleu, and Montblanc Explorer to name a few.
6. What genre of music best describes you?
My music depends on the mood I am in. Most frequently when I am in the gym, it’s EDM or Rap/Hip Hop. But I really listen to it all. I grew up young on Classic rock from my parents, then to emo and punk music, then switched to rap, then EDM. I really got into country about 5 years ago. So ya, I like it all.
7. Where are your roots – The best thing about/to do in your hometown?
I LOVE my roots. With the exception of living in different cities for work periodically, I never had the urge to leave St. Pete. The downtown life is amazing, with Tampa nearby if you St. Pete doesn’t do it for you. We got the beaches, bars, venues, restaurants and shops. The local life is amazing and so are the people.
8. Do you have one celebrity you would like to get busy with!
OOOOO I’ve had my dreams. Do I have to pick just one?? lol I of course have to say my girlfriend because she’s the love of my life, BUT, let’s just say she dumps me…i’ve always had a crush on Mila Kunis. If we were to make this more of a current question, Sydney Sweeney is gorgeous. Mother for sure.
9. Do you have any special talents?
Hmmmm special talents. I never really liked this question because I feel like I don’t have any lol. I’ve always been good at convincing friends to come out and have wild nights with me when they don’t want to-Being the fun devil on their shoulder. Does that count?lol Other than that, I am good at longboarding, spearfishing, fishing, building things…OH, I am good in the kitchen 🙂
10. What do you think is the most interesting engaging thing online at the moment?
Oh man. So many „interesting“ things online. Media is insane this day in age. We got the war going on, assasination attempts, election stuff, the epstein scandal that people are forgetting about…along with the Diddy stuff. There’s a lot, but I really try to stay out of all of it. Ignorance is bliss to a certain extent. Just took a bit of a social media hiatus myself. It’s good to do that every once in a while.
