Role Models

So with me, especially concerning modelling, I'm always looking to improve myself. I am fairly new to this industry and there's alot that I love about it and at the same time there's alot of things I hate as well. Anyone that knows me knows I tend to be very competitive in a good way though. I'm always striving for perfection because I know that once you get comfortable the next dude is ready to take your spot! That's the truth by the way, I've seen it happen to people sooo many times in every industry, so consider this my warning ;). Anyways there's a couple dude's out in this industry that I truly respect and aspire to develop a similar career as theirs.

Andre Douglas (Wilhemina Models), Wendell Lissimore (Red Models NYC), Shawn Sutton (Red Models NYC)

Andre Douglas - Has been doing his thing for a minute & has booked some of the top campaigns in the industry; Abercrombie & Fitch, American Eagle, DSquared and Levi's.

Wendell Lissimore - He's been around for a while too and he's forever improving. He's one of the only black dudes able to book work in the asian market. That's insane and homeboi does all the top shows during fashion week!

Shawn Sutton - Is one year deep in the industry and has done fairly well for himself since then. Booking some top runway shows during fashion week and I admire his drive for improvement as well. Dope dude!
