Antonio Ramos
by Angie Workman
 Adam Medders Photography Antonio is a very complex model whose interests are vast and varied. He began modeling after several friends and family members encouraged him to pursue the field. Although he has only been modeling for a short period of time, Antonio has already participated in a promotional runway show for Articles A-Z Clothing line.
This model and patriotic American takes his fitness seriously. He began working out with a personal trainer at sixteen and joined the United States Navy at the young age of seventeen. Antonio now stays in shape partly by playing rugby for the UNT Eagles. “I work out four days a week focusing on different muscle groups each day. I also practice rugby twice a week for three hours.”
 Adam Medders Photography Antonio isn’t fazed at all by rejection, and he understands what qualities models must possess in order to succeed in the industry. “I take rejection as constructive criticism and learn from it. If anything, rejection makes you a stronger person. Networking is very important in this industry. Having a great personality is also very important because you need to be able to work with many different people.”
Another one of Antonio’s many eclectic interests is dancing. “I like to dance. It runs in my family to dance, and it’s the best way I can express myself. Nightlife and dancing are always fun.” Conversely, Antonio approaches many aspects of his life with a certain zen-like attitude. “Nature – the trees and the sky – inspire me. There’s nothing like sitting in front of a vast body of water and just admiring how big it is and how it just exists.”
Antonio’s versatility translates into his dating life as well as his modeling. “I like being unique and I know that all women are different, so I always do something different on a date for everyone. I have gone Ice skating, horseback riding and sightseeing around the city. I do things that let us have conversations and be entertained at the same time. I’m a pleaser, so as long as my date’s happy, I’m happy.”
 Adam Medders Photography Antonio is extremely devoted to modeling and looks forward to what the future holds in store for him. “I can’t wait to get exposure and meet people. To those of my fans out there, thanks for the support!”
