I was going to a junior college in my hometown and working as a delivery guy to make money
People would be surprised to know that I...
I love music and I play a little bit of bass guitar
What's your latest obsession?
My skin and my body. When your career choice requires you to look your best, it becomes hard not to obsess looking good!
Your most prize possession?
My Armani jeans my mom bought me when I was back in California visiting. They are so comfortable and stylish!
Growing up, who did you look up to as your hero?
My favorite musicians, one of them is Jacoby Shaddix of Papa Roach! I always admired his inspirational lyrics and energy
When is the last time you said, "I Love You" to someone?
To my mom. I was actually having a bad day and we were exchanging a few texts and I was going to say something not very nice but I stopped and replied "Mom, I'm just really mad right now, I love you and I will talk to you tomorrow."
Three adjectives that best describes you:
Passionate, Determined and Honest

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?
Woodland, California—If I had to take you to one place it would have to be a local BBQ restaurant called Ludy's that I used to work at. I felt I did a lot of growing up there and it kind of defines my town
If you were given a indie cable show, what type of show would it be?
A documentary show about my life in NYC. I had some crazy adventures with my buddies here. I think it will provide some major entertainment watching what we do in this crazy city. Apres Moi by Regina Spektor

Be able to book some good jobs and work with some great clients. I don't need to be a supermodel or anything but to be able to travel a good amount and make some good money would be amazing!
