Name|Shane Crockery

How did you get discovered?
I was scouted by Joseph Matthews (my mother agent) through instagram!
What were you doing prior to modeling?
I was a waiter at Mirchi Bar N Grill and avidly enjoy the outdoors with activities such as hiking, riding dirt bikes, jet skies and wakeboarding.
People would be surprised to know that I...
have an involuntary eye disorder called astigmatism. This is a very rare symptom and there is no guarantee surgery that will fix this.
What's your latest obsession?
Chocolate chip pancakes with butter but no maple syrup.
Your most prize possession?
Two bracelets that were given to me by campers while I was a counselor called "Camp New Horizons"
Growing up, who did you look up to as your hero?
Actor Paul Walker while I was growing up because of my high interest in The Fast And The Furious trilogy.
When is the last time you said, "I Love You" to someone?
My mom in a recent phone call that was made this morning.
Three adjectives that best describes you:
Spontaneous, Sociable, Humorous
Describe your personal style:
Vintage, sleek and comforting. I like cozy sweaters, cuffed rise jeans, plain simple t-shirts and not wearing socks. I like being barefoot and I really enjoy denim as well.
Your favorite place you have travel to:
The Adirondack mountains because the scenery and how beautiful mother nature can be. The whole time I was there I didn't think to myself once what better place could I be at.
Your favorite film and scene from the film:
GIA—Scene: When Gia arrived to the Wilhelmina agency and engraved her name in to the front desk because the receptionist didn't know who she was.
Your favorite sport:
Sport: Football (American)
Team: The Washington Redskins
Team: The Washington Redskins
Player: Sean Taylor before he passed away
If there's a destination or item you would recommend us to check out or visit about your native country/city or town, what would you recommend?
Buffalo, New York—I would take you to "Angela On The Lake" because I pretty much grew up on the water and it is such a beautiful place.
If you were given a indie cable show, what type of show would it be? Which song would you choose as your theme song?
My own show would be about a group of kids that didn't have much growing up but then later create a high fashion line clothing that would later on becomes the biggest fashion brand. Theme song: Born On The Bayou by CCR
Craziest thing you ever done:
When I was 13 me and my friends broke into a shut down miniature golf indoor facility and wrote all over the walls with our names and other stupid sayings and later got arrested for it. Our names was clearly visible on the walls but with us all being minors. The ultimate punishment was 150 hours of community service. I totally regret this till this day!
Your wish for the remainder of 2016?
To end Third World poverty and give shelter and food to all the children living in the world!
