Who is your Favorite model?
Tyson Beckford.

What is your favorite book?
Tyrell by Coe Booth.

What is your favorite movie?
The Toy with Richard Pryor.

Why did you become a model and what is your goal as a model?
I wanted to build a career that is going to be a challenge and since I’m 5’6 and the modeling world is mostly 6′ and taller, this is best for me. My goal is to be a great print model and be the Voice of the hood in the modeling industry.

How important is your hair as a model? Why do you choose to wear your hair the way you do?
My hair is important because its apart of what makes a person in a photo. I keep my hair short with waves because it adds nice effects to the pictures.

What does your hair mean to you? Is it just an accessory that compliments your personality and style or is it deeper than that?
My hair do not mean everything, my hair does compliment my personality in many ways but it defines my character more.

How important is a woman’s hair to you? Does a weave, relaxed hair or a natural head bother you or do you have a preference for either of these styles?
I have always been a man who loves a woman’s natural hair. If she takes care of her hair it tells me a lot about her.

What do you think of our pageant America’s Next Natural Model to promote natural African hair?
These are some gorgeous women I would love to get to know and work with each and everyone of them some day.

Do you think black hair is an issue? Why or why not?
Yes, it’s an issue because too many people want to use weave and wigs to define the way they look instead of being happy with the way they look naturally.
