What is one thing people may be surprised to find out about you?
While studying for the HSC and balancing modelling, I competed in track and field athletics as a 200m and 400m sprinter. I represented at nationals the past few years as a finalist in each event and have enjoyed some success at this national level. In more depth, the past year I was offered a few scholarships to division 1 universities in the Unites States for running, however I elected to stay in Sydney and focus on my studies and my career.
What stresses you out?
I’m not too sure what stressed me out, but as soon as the sun is blanketed by cloud or the weather turns bleak I am left somewhat irritated. I love the Australian summer with a raging sun and the best beaches in the world, so when poor weather inhibits my ability to enjoy this attraction I am not a happy man.
If you could go on date a with any famous person (from now or history), who would you choose and why?
If I could go on a date with any famous person, right now, it would be extremely difficult to dismiss Margot Robbie. She’s absolutely stunning, a fellow Aussie who has the world at her feet. She is the embodiment of success through passion for what you do which has rocketed her to fame from Australia to the US box office. Perhaps she could teach me a thing or two.
What’s one subject you could talk about for at least 5 minutes?
I’m a huge NBA fan and 5 minutes isn’t near long enough to discuss the intricacies of the sport and the debates that eventuate as a result. The 2016 season had the fairytale ending I was hoping for, so the impatience for the next season to begin is growing. #Backtoback
What were you like as a child?
I am the youngest child in the family with two older sisters keeping me in check. I think I was a small, energetic and cheeky kid sporting a fashionable blonde bowl-cut for the majority of my primary school years, complicating my love for sport. I was always at the beach, on a basketball court or on a field with a ball in my hands.
What is a band/movie/artist/cool thing you recommend?
If you haven’t seen Bad Boys 2 with Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, it’s time to treat yourself to an all time entertainment experience.
