In the world of fashion and entertainment, where individuality and versatility are key, stands out not only for his striking looks but for his dynamic approach to his craft. Inspired by a passion for art, fashion, health, and fitness, Canice found his path in modeling as a way to express himself. “I have always been someone who likes to express themselves through art, fashion, health, and fitness,” he shares. “Modeling allows me to do that! I love to create and use my imagination to style different outfits. I love to pose in different ways and embrace all of my features.”
One of the most memorable milestones in Canice’s modeling career was his participation in the National Beauty Pageant “Mister Supranational” in Las Vegas. “I had the pleasure of representing the state of Pennsylvania as ‘Mr. Pennsylvania,'” he recalls. Competing against other top models from across the United States, he was judged on various attributes including personality, uniqueness, and physique. The pageant, which was televised internationally, provided an exhilarating experience, offering a platform to showcase his talents on a grand scale.
Working with Latitude Talent has been instrumental in propelling Canice’s career forward. He cites projects such as competing on the national game show “Let’s Make A Deal” and playing a role in the Tubi series “She’s Broken” as highlights of his journey. “Latitude Talent has provided amazing opportunities for me these past six years,” he notes, emphasizing the importance of networking and the diverse experiences that come with working in show business.
Balancing a career in modeling and acting with personal passions like cooking, fitness, and exploring new cultures is no small feat. However, Canice believes in the importance of a well-rounded life. “I try to make time for all of my passions throughout the year by organizing a schedule and setting goals,” he explains. His commitment to fitness not only enhances his physical presence on the runway and in front of the camera but also boosts his confidence and performance. “There is no better feeling than having your clothes fit nicely and showing it off in front of a big crowd!”
Navigating the fashion industry has its challenges, particularly the dry spells that are a natural part of the business. “It’s easy to get down on yourself, but you have to understand that that’s how the industry works,” he advises, highlighting the importance of focusing on self-improvement and maintaining a positive mindset.
Looking ahead, Canice envisions a future where his career continues to ascend. His goals are ambitious yet achievable, aiming to become a leading man in a Hollywood box office hit and an international fitness model. “Range is very important and it prevents you from getting typecasted,” he remarks, underlining the significance of versatility in his field.
His work on television projects like “She’s Broken” and “Let’s Make A Deal” has further enriched his understanding of the entertainment industry. “Both experiences have given me great insight into how show business and entertainment works,” he shares. Being himself while maintaining professionalism has been key to his growth in both modeling and acting.
For aspiring models looking to blend personal passions with their professional careers, Canice’s advice is clear: educate yourself on the industry, consistently work on your craft, and set yourself apart by doing what others aren’t willing to do. The blend of fashion, fitness, and an undying thirst for knowledge sets him apart, making him not just a model but a complete package.
Much like hip-hop artists who draw inspiration from diverse elements of their lives to create a unique sound, Canice incorporates his love for various aspects of life into his work. His journey is a testament to the power of passion, versatility, and the relentless pursuit of excellence.
