How did you get discovered?

-- I was scouted at a Rihanna concert downtown when I was 17.

How did it feel when you got scouted?

-- Getting scouted caught me a little off guard, but I figured I'd give it a try and see where it could take me.

What do you think about when you walk the runway?

-- Even after three years, I get a little nervous before every show - normally imagining myself falling or messing up.

What’s been the biggest highlight of your modelling career so far?

-- The biggest highlight of my career would probably be walking for Versace and getting to experience that top brand in action.

What do you like the most about your job?

-- My favourite part about modelling would have to be the opportunity to travel and see the world.

As a kid what did you want to be when you grew up?

-- Growing up I’d always dream of being a pro hockey player.

What do you like to do when you’re not modelling or off-duty?

-- When I'm not working I often stay at my girlfriends apartment, just relaxing maybe a few drinks.

What’s the last song that got stuck in your head?

-- The last song that got stuck in my head would have to be Novacane by Frank Ocean.

If you could hang out with any three people who would you choose?

-- If I could hang out with any three people I would have to choose Carey Prive, P.K. Subban and Brendan Gallegher, being the big hand fan I am.

What’s one subject you could talk about for at least 5 minutes?

-- I could talk about hockey for hours.

What’s something about yourself that might surprise people?

-- It might surprise most people that hockey was actually my first word as a baby.

What do you see yourself doing after your modelling career?

-- After modelling I plan on going to university in Toronto, then moving to Honduras to run my families beach bar.
