Chic Models is proud to spotlight our September Model of the Month, Gabe Fontana, a true multi-talent whose journey is as inspiring as it is unique. Originally from Northern Virginia in the Washington, D.C. area, Gabe now calls sunny Santa Monica home—where you’ll often find him jogging along the beach with his dog.

After spending eight years in the fast-paced world of finance, Gabe traded in the suit-and-tie for a career that aligned with his real passion: acting and modeling. Since taking the leap just two and a half years ago, he’s already built an impressive portfolio, appearing in campaigns for major brands including Peloton, US Army, Hanes, Reebok, Uber, Spectrum, Acura, Nescafe, AAA, GNC, LA Fitness, Rivian, Manscaped, Stella Rosa, and CHAGEE.

With a short-term goal of booking 1–2 modeling jobs each week and a long-term vision of becoming one of the top print and commercial male models in the U.S., Gabe is well on his way to making his mark in the industry. His ultimate dream is to balance both worlds—continuing to model while building a strong career as an actor. No matter how big acting becomes, modeling will always remain a part of his story.
