“MY SENSE OF FASHION IS AN AMALGAM OF MID-2000S SKATER KID AND CLASSIC AMERICAN WORKWEAR.” I was a skater kid in middle and high school. Skateboard culture, at least at the time, was just as much about the clothes you wore as it was about actually skateboarding. I think that, during those years, I learned how much symbolism is wrapped up in the clothes you decide to put on in the morning. When I get dressed, I am saying something about who I am and how I feel that day. It is an external expression of the man I am inside. “I WANT MY LIFE TO BE INTERESTING” I am unsure I have any specific modeling goals. I am too new to the industry to even know what to aspire to. I am here on a whim. I am here for the ride. I want to be able to tell my grandchildren a life story worth hearing. When it comes to work, I show up early, show kindness, smile, work really hard, and trust myself to leap at opportunities when they present themselves. Instagram: @rswinter 30
