How did you get discovered?
I walked into an agency in my hometown and said "Hi, my name is Lucas, and I'd like to start modeling."
What were you doing prior to modeling?
I took a year off after high school to live in Belgium and travel around Europe as well
People would be surprised to know that I...
am fluent in both French and English
What's your latest obsession?
Getting confirm for as many NY fashion week runway shows as possible. It's my first one, so I am very excited!
Your most prize possession?
My cat, Minette. Unfortunately, I had to leave her behind in Oregon
Growing up, who did you look up to as your hero?
I wanted to be the best person I could be, so I really just focused on myself, but then again, being Batman would be awesome!
Three adjectives that best describes you...
Outgoing, intellectual, multi-cultural
When is the last time you said "I Love You" to someone?
Probably my twin sister when I last talked to her on skype
Your favorite place you have travel to
Paris is a dream of mine, every time I visit there, I always tell myself "I have got to live here!"
Your favorite film/scene from a film
No Country For Old Men—Too many great scenes to mention!
Describe your personal style
I based my style off of my collection of Levi's 511 jeans, and I love denim, leather and canvas!
Your favorite sport or sports figure
Sports: Fencing
I would have to say I really loved my dad because he was my coach and world champion in veteran's division in fencing
If there's a destination or item you would recommend us to check out or visit about your native country/city or town, what would you recommend?
Jacksonville, Oregon—Goodbean coffee, I worked there for three years and bison burgers are amazing too!
Your favorite song/artist
I love different types of music, but for now, there's a classical piece called George's Waltz, it's from the soundtrack of the movie, A Single Man—it's one of the most moving songs I've heard in a while
Your greatest moment in modeling so far...for you
Shooting with Bruce Weber
What is your wish for the remaining months of 2011?
My wish is to have a men's fragrance campaign!
