Age: 23

Hometown: Plymouth, but I mainly grew up in Liverpool.

I was scouted: A year and two months ago I was working in Topman when a girl approached me to do a shoot for a magazine. From that I did a campaign off my own back and built up a portfolio which I took to D1.

My hobbies are: Writing poetry, playing football and acting.

Current obsession: Tom Hardy, he’s such a good actor.

Pet peeve: When other people wear double denim.

Fear: I hate being alone.

Guilty pleasure: Mean Girls, I know every line from that film.

Last lie I told: That I was older than I am.

Dream job: Actor.

Favourite childhood memory: When my sister and I used to play butty sandwich (we used to fold a mattress in half with me inside and she would lie on top of it).

Home is: I have no fixed address, I float around.

Favourite London hang out: In bed watching films

Dream destination: Asia – but the countryside, not the cities.

Favourite food: Soft boiled eggs with toasted rye bread, peanut butter and marmalade.

Dream dinner date: Abraham Lincoln (but I wouldn’t go home for coffee after).

Favourite movies: Bronson and Mean Girls.

Least favourite movie: Dirty Dancing, an ex-girlfriend made me watch it four times in a row.

Favourite cartoon: Adventure Time.

First gig: Leftover Crack at The Underworld.

First CD: Kanye West, The College Dropout.

Music I like: Punk, 80’s synth pop, grime and a bit of hip-hop.

Most treasured possession: An old Canadian hunting knife I was given for my birthday.

Last thing I bought: You don’t want to know.

Career highlight so far: Dr Marten campaigns as the team is great.

Future plans: Acting and continuing to do short films to go alongside my poetry.

Myself in three words: Charming, insecure and self-destructive.
