How discovered:
A friend of mine told me about Rockmen and advised me to apply. So I took a few snapshots and send them to Rockmen and the adventure has begun.

Best modeling experience so far?
Ludovic de Saint Sernin certainly. He is the greatest person, his work is sublime, and his team is so cute. I did the DÉSIR show, the e-commerce for E-BOY SAISON 2 collection, and the ALL RUMOURS ARE TRUE show.

Currently you’re obsessed with/about:
Sports. I do athletics and go to the gym several times a week. I really love sports.

What is something you’ve always wanted to do/try?
I’d like to spend time in the desert or any very quiet place.

How do you want to make an impact in the world?
I’m not really interested in being remembered as such, for me the most important thing is to help my family and my loved ones.

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?
Always try to do my best and stay humble.
