Michael: Tell us a bit about your background ...
Cameron: I was born and raised in a small town in Wyoming. Throughout my childhood I was surrounded by an active lifestyle. Raised to value the outdoors and all that it has to offer I became an adventure seeker always looking for another way to enjoy life in the outdoors. After high school I moved onto the University of North Dakota to pursue a degree in Airport Management.
While there I maintained a busy lifestyle by occupying my time with Track and Field and Cross-country practice before and after classes, spending time with the fraternity brothers, and then a plethora of organizational activities to fill in the gaps of any down time I could find.
After receiving my degree I took my first job in beautiful Aspen, CO. After gaining a wealth of airport experience, mingling with the rich and famous, and enjoying the outdoors once again I decided to move to the "Big City" of Denver, CO to further my career.
Michael: How did you decide to enter into a career as a model?
Cameron: I have thought of the idea for many years but was never in the position to allow myself the opportunity. After moving to Denver I knew that I would be able to find the resources to get things started with the idea of becoming a model.
With much positive feedback from many of the photographers I worked with I took it to the next level and began looking for an agent to assist in building a name for myself.
Michael: What is your secret to staying in great shape?
Cameron: Staying in shape is just one part of keeping a good balance in my life. I enjoy Yes I do still have to go to the gym on a regular basis to hit certain muscle groups that are not regularly used but besides that it's the hiking, running, swimming and a healthy lifestyle that helps keep me in shape. Living an active lifestyle and by doing many of the activities that I enjoy I am able to maintain the body that I am looking for.
Michael: Who are the greatest influences on your life... Why and How?
Cameron: My family is the driving force behind my life achievements and therefore they are in part my greatest influence. I know that they are there for me as I am for them. They are the motivation that forces my desire to succeed. I know that when I do not meet the expectations that they have set forth for me only allows them more room to not meet the expectation I hold for them.
Michael: What really motivates you to succeed?
Cameron: Along with my family, goals are also motivators in my life. As I live day to day I feel that it is essential to have something to strive for in the future. Everything that I do has those goals that I set for myself in mind. The gratification of completing a goal motivates me to move on to the next.
Michael: Describe a favorite leisure activity...
Cameron: Anything that allows me to be out in the sun is a favorite activity. I have lived in the cold far to long not to take advantage of the summer sun and all that it has to offer.
If I were to narrow it down to just one, it would have to be enjoying cocktails with close friends while sitting outside on a rooftop patio overlooking the city with the mountains in the backdrop. That's relaxation!
Michael: Tell us about your personal and professional goals?
Cameron: Some of my more prominent goals are as follows
Model for a high end fashion show in NYC within 1-2 yrs
Marathon in 2hrs58min by the age of 28
Complete my Masters degree by age 30
Exec director of San Diego International Airport by 2020
Michael: More quickies
Cameron: Favorite drink - Mojito
Favorite food - Steak Kabobs
Favorite place - Laid out on the beach
The perfect day for you - A nice hike through the mountains in the morning, lunch with my family, and then a great evening out with friends on a roof top patio over looking the city lights.
Michael: How do you react when people say to you that you are "such a hot guy"
Cameron: I usually blush and then try to move onto something else as quickly as possible.
