About

Miles Reza began his modeling career at the age of 18 when scouted by America’s Next Top Model in Santa Monica. The better choice, however, was to enter into contract with Elite Models out of Miami in an effort to build his portfolio.

As a young boy, Miles was very ambitious. He participated in multiple sports, several theatrical electives, sang in the school choir, and even taught himself how to play piano and drums before his twelfth birthday. His obvious love of music and performance landed him in several school plays and further fueled his artist endeavors. His athletic accomplishments earned him a second degree black belt in Taekwondo, as well as six championships and two national titles in ice hockey which resulted in him being offered a contract with the minor leagues at the age of 17. 

Though Miles was passionate about sports, he had also suffered many injuries due to playing hockey which lead him to a pivotal decision regarding his career path. And so instead of signing with the minor leagues, Miles chose to focus his ambitions towards entertainment and began the pursuit of modeling. It wasn’t long before his tall build and classic good looks garnered interest from several agencies world wide. He found himself walking runways, traveling all over the world for print work, and modeling in photo shoots in the fashion industry. He has been featured in international print magazines and digital media such as GQ, Vogue, Vulkan, Fantastics, and Bello to name a few. His image was also chosen as the feature male cover for three major romance novels.

Yet, in the midst of many successfully climbing the ladder as a fashion model, Miles continued to yearn for his main love for singing and acting. One of his biggest goals was to work with renowned vocal coach Jan Smith, dubbed as “Mama Jan” in the music world. In addition to being noted for her work with some of the industry’s brightest stars (Justin Bieber, Usher, Shania Twain, Rob Thomas, Nicki Minaj, India Arie and many others), Mama Jan is also a Grammy nominated music producer. Miles has been vocally training with Jan Smith for a quite some time now and has excelled his musical talents to its greatest potential. He has been studying with the best acting coaches in Los Angeles for a few years now at New York Film Academy and Groundlings and is attending Maggie Flanigan Studio and UCB Improv in the fall prepping to land major T.V. and movie roles.

Miles continues his work as a model for major brands, doing editorials for magazines, consistently auditioning for film and theatrical parts, along with a working influencer as a brand ambassador. He will finish his training acting training off in Summer of 2024.
