About me
A creative visionary matched by an influential fashion industry presence. I represented a frontier in the model industry, being one of the founding seven heavily tattooed male models to garner global recognition and success, redefining the landscape for a once marginalized artistic subculture. The public persona afforded by an illustrious and meteoric career in events is a platform for my ambitious direction and design.
