Every Sunday Moses is among several other models training and working on their modelling routines for an average of two hours. While he does not have a rigid schedule as regards dieting and proper skincare techniques, he does lot of weightlifting, though he admits that he has not been in the gym for quite some time. Moses has recently begun doing calisthenics. He is looking for more of an aesthetic or sculpted look, where a person has a little more muscle that a lean model. To achieve this look Moses will need to return to the gym.
He dreams to one day have his own modelling agency where requirements are not for just the tall and slim but where both genders regardless of height, body mass and age can walk the runway. “It would be perfect … having a variety of models because doing that will create a bigger market for business and designers. An older man or woman may showcase a particular design better than a younger model. What are you going to do if all of your models are plus size or just skinny? You have to have a variety of models because no one is a particular figure and everyone would like to look good and know that when they are looking for a design, it comes in their size.”
Part of being a local model means being paid next to nothing and for sometimes nothing. In addition, many models are paid weeks later instead of on a job, something Moses promises will change when he has his own agency.
Today, Moses is also an artist, photographer, graphic designer, accountant, audit clerk and bartender. He is currently employed with Hard Rock Café at MovieTowne. Because of all his jobs, he has no free time, but whenever he is able to carve out any, he swims and exercises.
Moses sport jackets, hoodies, and pieces that stand out. When wearing them, his colour choices are often black, red or blue.
In the years to come, the chiseled Capricorn hopes to take his modelling career international as well as learn how to manage an agency so that when he does do so, it is a household name in Guyana and regionally also. Moses likes listening to Rock, Techno and EDM music. He also loves to indulge in wild meat curries - labba and caiman. A favourite of his though is his mother’s mixed beef and mutton curry.
