That One Time I Decided I Wanted to be a Published Model, and Did.

Sometime around late fall of 2017 I was feeling really peppy with my new, shaved head and decided damnit that I wanted to be sunglasses or corrective eyewear model! I ran around telling everyone that I knew that I was going to do this. One of those people just happened to be Abdiel Gonzales.

As it turns out, at the time Abdiel wrote articles for, and orchestrated photoshoots for a local publication, The Lakelander. Lo and behold a few months later he was doing a write up about the rising popularity of glasses in the fashion industry and remembered what I said about wanting to be a “glasses model” and asked me if I would be interested in being one of his models for the story!!! Of course I said yes and I was officially published in the March 2020 Issue of The Lakelander Magazine!

HERE is the printed publication in it entirety.

Below are the photos selected for the piece.
Thank you Abdiel for brining my modeling goal to fruition in such a short time!
