We had the good fortune of connecting with Hayden Warren and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Hayden, can you tell us more about your background and the role it’s played in shaping who you are today?
Hello! My name is Hayden Warren, and I am 19 years old. I currently live and am from a small town, called Enterprise Alabama, home of the Boll Weevil. I love my little hometown, but has brought me many challenges for my long term goals. Modeling is not a very big thing here, and agencies are scarce. I think that’s been one of my biggest influences, is to make my hometown proud. Being from a small town, defiantly makes someone who they are. My little community supports each-other in the good and the bad.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
Modeling was not easy to get into. I feel there are a lot of stereotypes when it comes to modeling as well. The lessons i’ve learned through this process was be you, for you. You owe your success to yourself.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Enterprise Alabama is a very small community. We are known for the Boll Weevil, we even have a monument for it right in downtown. I would say that is where I would bring them first, it’s a great way to learn the history! Second I would bring them to my favorite ice cream shop, Milky Moos, they have been there since before I was born! Next, I would take them shopping to support all of my local small businesses in town. Lastly. I would bring them to my favorite restaurant, Larry’s Barbecue which has the best BBQ in town!

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
The people who deserve the most credit in my story, is the entire downtown. Downtown Enterprise is almost like a small community in itself. It brings together small businesses. I have to give credit because they helped me start my modeling career. I few businesses even helped me get started!
