Brand Ambassador Lee Cooper SA, Full-time Model

Born in Johannesburg South Africa

I was born in Johannesburg and have been part of the modelling industry since 2009 I am a very motivated and ambitious individual who believes the sky ain't my limit it's my playground I believe that if you set your mind to something anything is possible.

My 3 year old son Tameez is the center of my universe, and my main aim is to be a good role model so that he has someone to look up to be proud of Although only 3 years old he is already an avid fashion follower and is trying his hand at posing like his Daddy.

I was awarded brand ambassador for Lee Cooper South Africa in October 2009 and carry the brand with pride and professionalism My model career has been an exciting personal lifestyle journey

My hobbies include hitting the gym lap swimming jet skiing scuba diving kickboxing horse riding motorbike riding making me an active performer in outdoor adrenalin sports And yes as I am working hard to become a top male fitness model I fully understand that I have to keep fit in mind and body and not only become a gym rat whose only interests are limited to health and nutrition I hit the gym while maintaining a good balance with my social life A work out tip from me Do not waste your time talking in the gym train hard and get real result allow some time to rest

Like the boy next door, I love to chill with close friends and actually just like hanging out when I am not actively involved in sports I spend my free time with my son Tameez and watching movies for inspiration to take on the world to my utmost best I also enjoy riding motor bikes as I am a bike fanatic as well as fast sports cars and track racing
