Tell us about yourself

I’m Emilio I’m from Denver, Co. I’m currently 25 and still have a baby face where people don’t believe me that I’m 25. I moved to New York when I was 22 to go to New York for Acting school. 

What is your biggest dream?

Biggest dream right now is become a full time Model/ Actor/ talented human being.  But the big goal is be the biggest star in the world! But baby steps until then. 

What does it mean to be your own kind of beautiful?

It means that I’m helping people realize that beauty truly comes from the inside, and when people see that, you’re beautiful on the outside. 

Tell us about your modeling experience.

Experience is everyday my roommate is a photographer so I’ve been his test subjects for backgrounds, lighting, filters. I’ve modeled for this small company in Colorado that was for a business learning program. Runway competition shows in LA and I’d love to be able to find the photos one day! 

What is your dream brand to model for?

A ton of them! Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, Yves Saint Laurent, Balmain, Guess, Express, Tommy Hilfiger, Michael Kors, H&M, Addidas, Yeezus, Louis Vuitton I LOVE what Virgil has done with the brand! 

How would you describe your fashion style?

I’d say it changes from trendy to semi formal casual love a good button up and nice slim fit pants with dress boots to a t-shirt and jeans and a sneaker kind of guy! I’m always up to try new fashion trends. 

How important is self-awareness and confidence to you in your everyday life?

Very important! This is coming from a kid who was so self conscious and scared to stand up for myself! And I’m hoping one day I can at least help one person realize their worth and live the life they want to live! 

What makes you beautiful/handsome?

When I have a fresh haircut, being sore from a workout! And even when I have a new pair of shoes can make me feel like I can conquer the world! 

What would you say to another girl/guy your age who is struggling with their confidence?

People will always try to tear you down if they see something you have that they don’t have or see in themselves. Let the haters be your motivators! Live YOUR life the way you imagine it!
