Zara,<br />I am a 25-year-old man with dark brown skin. I was born in California but grew up in South Africa where my family moved when I was 7 years old. My father is black African and my mother is white Irish-American. I have been modeling since I was 16, working for various clients including fashion magazines, ad agencies, and commercial brands. My experience has given me a lot of confidence in front of the camera and I enjoy posing for photoshoots where I can show off my body shape, tattoos, and facial expressions.
My early childhood experiences were mainly positive and this influenced my attitude towards life as well as my career choice. Growing up in South Africa exposed me to many different cultures which broadened my perspective on life and helped shape the person I am today.<br />I've always been confident and outgoing so it wasn't difficult for me to start modeling professionally at such a young age. Throughout high school I continued working on building my body and maintaining a healthy lifestyle, this has allowed me to achieve some great results in terms of physical appearance which is something that many people find appealing when they look at someone who has worked hard at developing their physique.
I have had many clients over the years who have appreciated my unique combination of African features with an American upbringing. This allows me to stand out from other models and be remembered by casting directors, photographers, and designers. I've been fortunate enough to work for some major brands such as Calvin Klein
