He’s a model who made his mark by signing with top agencies like Vision Los Angeles, Wilhelmina Miami, and Stars San Francisco—pretty impressive, right? He landed the cover of Risbel magazine, which was definitely a milestone, and even worked alongside legendary photographer Bruce Weber for Barney’s fall campaign. Before all the spotlight, he took a bold step: driving down from Sacramento to Los Angeles, determined to kick-start his modeling career. He met with several agencies during that time, showing real hustle. Born in Ukraine, he eventually settled in Los Angeles, California, where he continued building his path as a model. With a rich heritage, he’s half Ukrainian and half Russian, which adds to his unique look. On a personal note, his younger brother, who is six years younger, was born with cerebral palsy—a fact that speaks volumes about the family’s strength and resilience.
