Mykey, a trailblazing plus-size male model, has successfully transitioned from a career in hospitality management to living his dream in the fashion industry. Since making the switch five years ago, Mykey has made a name for himself, walking the runways of New York Fashion Week, Miami Swim Week, and Runway of Dreams, and working with major brands such as Izod, Comfort Republic, Johnny Bigg, and JC Penney. He has been showcased on online social media outlets for Hanes Underwear and Zappos Adaptive for Zappos.com. His dedication to body positivity has earned him recognition from Tyra Banks, winning the BODY-ODY Positivity Contest on Modelland in his category. Mykey has also been featured in numerous magazine publications, such as Canvas Rebel, Voyage LA/ATL Magazines, and Queen Size Magazine. Mykey's resilience in the face of adversity, including his experiences as an aortic dissection survivor, is a testament to his strength and determination. Now, as a model with disabilities, Mykey aims to inspire others to overcome their own challenges and achieve their goals while fighting ESRD (kidney disease) through his work as a model, voice-over actor, and writer.
