Mr. Talented is a beautiful soul. Some of you may know that I’ve been a fan of this FIT<\/a> student and entrepreneur since I first saw his MRT bow-tie (a bow-tie I now OWN! YES!) in 2011. Since then, I’ve come to learn that he has such a friendly, loving, and lovable spirit.<\/p>\n

He has been kind to me personally. He has given me advice directly and indirectly. I am daily inspired by him, as he has such a refreshing outlook on life. I am grateful that I am able to call him my friend. I adore him, and, hopefully, you will as well. Enjoy his interview.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/a><\/div>\n
Where are you from?<\/b><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
I was born and raised in The Empire State. New York City.
\n<\/a>
\n<\/a><\/p>\n
What are you studying\/doing for a living?<\/b><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
I study Textile Surface Design. I collect currency for a living.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Any hobbies?<\/b><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
I enjoy walking and painting. If I had a girlfriend, I would love to create memories with her.<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
What does style mean to you?<\/b><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
Style, to me, is the freedom of expression.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
What words would you use to describe your style?<\/b><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
I decided to take a break from fashion because my style was too intimidating<\/i>. I attract too much attention, which I disliked.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Where are your favorite places to shop?<\/b><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
I shop wherever my eyes and legs take me.<\/div>\n
<\/a>\u00a0<\/a><\/div>\n
Do you have any favorite fashion icons or designers?<\/b><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
I really look up to Nigo. He allowed me to work for his company in 2007, and I am forever grateful.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
With regard to style, where do you get your inspiration?<\/b><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
My inspiration comes from my mind. I love fashion. It makes me feel so incredible and extraordinary.<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
Is there one article of clothing you couldn’t live without?<\/b><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
I can’t live without my Goyard messenger bag and wallet.<\/div>\n
<\/a>
\n<\/a><\/div>\n
Any life advice, parting words, or final thoughts?<\/b><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
Take your time. Life is long for people with great intentions. Love yourself and appreciate everything you do.<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
I can’t wait to do a photo shoot with this man someday. Thank you, Mr. Talented, for being my first male feature!<\/div>\n
