\u00bd Scots-Irish<\/p>\n<p><strong>Birthsign:<\/strong><br \/>\nTaurus<\/p>\n<p><strong>How discovered:<\/strong><br \/>\nMy cousin Christine Hahn is a beauty photographer in NY. When I was 17 she told me I could model and last October she visited and brought it up again. I flew up to the city with her and by the end of the week, I met with 8 different agencies. It\u2019s really exciting how quickly things move in this industry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What was your first modeling job?<\/strong><br \/>\nOpening Ceremony.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite things:<\/strong><br \/>\nVery passionate about illustration and drawing. Specifically science fiction comics, art, and film. <\/p>\n<p><strong>What are you listening to at the moment?<\/strong><br \/>\nLots of Pixies, The Smiths, and The Smashing Pumpkins and Joy Division.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite movie, tv show:<\/strong><br \/>\nI can&#8217;t really choose just one but a film I&#8217;ve been inspired by lately is Akira by director Katsuhiro Otomo<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite designer, fragrance or beauty product:<\/strong><br \/>\nI&#8217;m a big fan of vintage pieces and embroidering on clothing to make it my own. Since I\u2019ve walked for Calvin Klein, I\u2019ve been reading a lot about Raf Simons and his history.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What were you doing before modeling?<\/strong><br \/>\nI was in Savannah, Georgia working as a house painter and general contractor. <\/p>\n<p><strong>What would you be doing if you weren&#8217;t modeling?<\/strong><br \/>\nProbably still painting houses and drawing spaceships. I definitely want a career in the arts, perhaps designing sets or doing concept art for films or video games. <\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s something uncool that you love anyway?<\/strong><br \/>\nI like Crocs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite modeling experience so far?<\/strong><br \/>\nAfter a couple days of living in New York, I got booked on a Prada campaign and that was really exciting to go to Los Angeles for the first time and shoot with Willy Vanderperre.  My first show ever was a Prada exclusive in Milan which was extremely exciting and nerve-wracking since I had never walked or been to Milan. <\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s the best thing about your hometown\/country?<\/strong><br \/>\nMy hometown Bloomingdale, Georgia is a rural town off Savannah. Savannah is full of rivers, marshes, and swamps that are ripe for exploration. Growing up I was surrounded by beautiful woods and fields for miles. I miss wandering around, surfing Savannah beaches, and riding motorcycles with my family. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Which brand would you really love to model for?<\/strong><br \/>\nGucci and would love to continue modeling for Raf Simons x Calvin Klein <\/p>\n<p><strong>Currently you&#8217;re obsessed with\/about:<\/strong><br \/>\nLots of older science fiction illustrators such as Jean Giraud, Richard Corben, and Philippe Druillet. I get lots of inspiration from their work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the best piece of advice you\u2019ve ever been given?<\/strong><br \/>\nListen 70% of the time, speak 30%<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Christian, 19, from Savannah, likes Katsuhiro Otomo, illustration, and the Smashing Pumpkins.
