The Chinese model Jeremy Tang was born in Vietnam and is currently live in New York. He can speaks fluent English, Mandarin, Cantonese, and Vietnamese. He is good in dancing, surfing, biking, volleyball, tennis, rollerblading and swimming. Hit the jump to know him better from his self-introduction and some nice photos.

I love to travel and I do travel a lot. I am available to work international as runway, print, commercial, ads, fit. I am originally from Vietnam. Born and raised there. I got my bachelor degree in Economic from University California of Los Angeles. I started my modeling job since I was in Vietnam. I have always been having a athletic body since I was a swimmer. My brother brought me to the modeling world. That is how I started. I enjoy it a lot. I treat my job professionally. Depend on what kind of assignment I am getting. But sleeping enough and eating properly are very important. If the assignment shows body, then I need about 1 to 2 weeks to prepare. I will properly eat healthier and training harder.

I enjoy every assignment I worked. Getting along with photographers and knowing the purpose of the shoot are very important. It just makes the shoot more enjoyable. For me, communication is the key. I have to feel comfortable with the people I work with in a very short time. Imagine I am almost naked in front of everybody and still have to feel enjoy and relax. I must stay focused and follow the camera. My personal goals are to learn Spanish, stay in shape and healthy. Professional goals, I would like to get more modeling assignments in international recognition level. My mother has been the greatest influences in my life. She is a hard worker. If she wants something, she will work hard to get it no matter how long it takes. I really like challenge. If I see something I like, I will go after it. And again, I am very patient as well. Staying healthy and in shape is not an easy job. It requires a lot of commitment and I like to have that kind of quality in life.
