Immediately after graduating with honors he was scooped up by GLAMOUR magazine to be a photo editor, and through hard work, determination and more than a little talent he swiftly rose through the ranks of GLAMOUR to become a fashion editor and television personality for the magazine as well. He worked each month with the beauty and fashion departments to create the amazing photographs that go into the magazine, as well as help decide what fashion trends made the cut.
