How long have you been modeling?

I started modeling only a few months ago so its been an exciting new journey for me.

Do you remember your first shoot? What stands out from that experience?

Of course! My first shoot was actually with Brent Chua a couple months ago right when I started off. I was so excited for this shoot for Man and being able to work with him again really just made the experience that much better. That first shoot was so unique and special to me, naturally I was a bit nervous walking in. Once I met Brent we got to work. He really impressed on me the importance of believing in who you are and who you want to be and then trusting in the path that takes you there.

Let's talk about fitness and health. Do you have a ritual you follow to stay camera ready?

I really just keep it simple in terms of a diet, nothing too special, but a chocolate flavored protein shake is always a go-to after a tough workout. CrossFit has always been a cornerstone of my workout routine, but I recently started practicing Muay Thai and Jiu Jitsu.

What is your go-to underwear style?

I like to mix it up!

If you could compete in any physical challenge, like America Ninja Warrior what event would you compete in?

I'd love to be an Iron-Man Finisher one day. It's such a daunting task to train for, but that makes the feeling of success by completing it that much greater. Plus the community surrounding the sport seems to be filled with some great people that I'm sure I would enjoy getting to know.
