What pays your bills? Acting, singing, dancing and modeling. Basically, whatever I can do to keep me from being out-of-work or a waiter, I’ll do! Although waiters are great. I’d just be a terrible one! When SWAK Designs asked you to be part of its new denim campaign, what was your first reaction? I’m a guy, so my first reaction was “What’s a SWAK?” But once I heard? I was totally into it. Being a man with a preference for plus size women, this couldn’t have been a more perfect opportunity. I wanted in, no questions asked! (Check out swakdesigns.com) You have so many opportunities that come your way, though. Why choose to be part of a campaign for a plus size clothing company? Two words: Topless. Models. No, no, I’m joking. The real reason is because this was a special opportunity to do something that hadn’t been done before. I don’t know of any male model being used in a plus size campaign like this. I’m honored to be the first and sure hope I won’t be the last! There are a lot of men - like myself - that are attracted to the beauty of a plus size woman. I want to show women how plus size can be sexy. To be proud of their body, and to make a statement that YES, there are men who recognize you are beautiful and are proud of your body too. PLUS-MODEL-MAG.COM / OCT 2013 #PLUSMODELMAG
