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

Hi Chris, what habits do you feel play an important role in your life?
Habits I feel helped shaped my success I would have to start off by saying always seeking knowledge. I never put a cap on how much I can learn rather it be a technique or new train of thought. Another habit would be setting and sticking to schedules and planning. Having set times put aside for certain tasks really does train the mind & body.

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.
Im most proud of overcoming and sticking with what I said I was going to do. Im eternally grateful & in constant awe of my journey and growth. Im excited to be having my first ever fashion show on my 23rd birthday this year in August. Everything will be designed by me and really be a showcase of my journey and my skills thus far.

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?
The most interesting place I would have to say is just a regular park downtown. Just relaxing and aware of surroundings, and watching animals,nature and people. With a joint rolled up and some wine of course, Straight to Moons seafood for the best wings in Macon after. And to finish it off with something to watch on Netflix. Im real laid back and really care most about how me and the people I care about feel in each other’s presence versus being in a crowd. Way more intimate is my vibe.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I shoutout my family. Truly, my family is my backbone, the reason I do what I do and motivate me like no other. No matter how many outfits I do or who I do them for, one thing I can always rely on to be a comfort is my family. Another special shoutout to the few people I call friends. The ones who I run every outfit through for an opinion it means more to me than anything and I do view those special people as family as well.
