Meet Sir'Twon

How old were you when you began modeling?

I was about 16 years old when I got into modeling.

What do you feel has been your greatest accomplishments thus far?

Thus far I would have to say one of my biggest accomplishments has been winning the very prestigious title of Mr. Continental. I never thought I would even be competing for a National pageant, so winning was mind blowing.

Who is an artist that you would love to work with?

I would love to work with Beyoncé again. I love Rihanna’s style and fashion and would love to work with her. Tom Ford, Calvin Klein and a handful of other designers would be a dream come true.

Are you signed? If so, what agency?

Yes I am signed. I started off as a lifestyle model with Ford modeling agency in Miami. I am currently with UPMT Agency for commercial and print here in LA.

Who is one of your favorite models? Past or present.

I hate to be so generic but the queens Naomi and Tyra. Tyson Beckford, I mean as a young black man who wanted to model, he was the Mecca. I also really enjoy Broderick Hunter’s work as well. He represents well for the new school.

What is the best way for you to be contacted for prospective work/opportunities?

The best way to contact me for work would be via email sirtwonbookings@gmail.com. There is also a contact tab on my website which you should all check out at sirtwonbrown.com. Otherwise feel free to contact my agent over at UPMT Agency.

Print/Runway/Editorial?

Mostly print, commercial work and lifestyle work.

How was your first experience as a model?

My first experience as a model was a bit overwhelming at first but ended up being very exciting and fun. It was a runway show for David’s Bridal. My part was easy but when you add my female counterparts things get crazy. Those dresses were so big and beautiful but I’m sure a headache to have to model in. They did a great job once things got going.

What are some of your do's and don'ts when preparing for a photo shoot?

Do’s:

Be prepared.

Get as much rest before as possible.

Be clean and professional.

Get in a good workout.

Stay hydrated.

Don’t’s:

Don’t party all night thinking it won’t show on your face or in your work.

Don’t eat the wrong foods.

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

In five years I see myself doing a lot commercials, television and movies. I want kids, so hopefully working on that. Marriage would be nice but if not definitely children and a nanny.

Where can people find you on social media?

@sirtwon on most social media platforms.
