Hello from Seattle!
Hello everyone, I'm Alex Hager from Seattle, WA! I just joined Model Mayhem. I've long wanted to fulfill my dream of becoming a model and actor. I've been worried about what others would think, but now I feel comfortable doing what I love. I have a little experience with commercials, short films, and modeling with Macy's. I'm certainly looking for more opportunities. Modeling and acting is something I've long wanted to try, so I'm going to give it my best and fullest commitment. I am very outgoing and would love to work with anyone. Thanks.

Otherwise you will get photographers who haven't logged in in over a year. There are a lot of inactive accounts. Make an announcemnet. Look on the front page for members offering comments for comments, and comment on their photos. Also make an announcement yourself. Post a bulletin by going to My stuff > bulletins. Friends can see the bulletins you post. Be active in the forums, but avoid trolls who start threads just to watch the ensuing flame war. Avoid threads that beat the over GWC's, flakes, escorts, ..., etc. Make positive constructive comments. Whenever you get published, add some new photos, or accomplish anything in general, post an announcement in the Accomplishments, Achievements and High Fives forum. Share your other accounts on the Social Media User Name Sharing Thread. Good luck in your search!
