Instagram Influencer Spotlight On: Tarek A. @tarekwantsfries

1) Tell us a little about yourself. What are you doing now and where do you come from?

Well, let’s see… I’m a blogger/model , I dedicate my time in exploring new things and new places and sharing it with the world. I’m always on the search for the next cool thing to do.
I’m from Miami originally, but currently traveling around the world, so home is wherever the heart is at the moment.

2) What are your topics of interest? What do you post on Instagram the most?

I mostly post pics of outfits, places and activities. my topics of interests vary but they seem to sway more towards traveling, fashion and modeling.

3) How did your Instagram name come about?

It really just started as a “just for fun” thing and then it started to escalate… So we’ll see where it goes next.

4) What are some apps you use to edit your photos? Share with us your photo-editing routine!

I mainly use vsco and after light. Those are my to go to apps for photo editing.

6) If there’s one thing your fellow Instagrammers just gotta try now, what’s it gonna be?

I’d say they gotta try getting out and traveling more. The more you get to explore the more you’ll discover more about who you are.

7) What’s your favorite part about being an influencer?

I’d say the interaction and seeing how people view you and evaluate you through pics. It’s always interesting to see what kind of image people have of you vs. the image you may think you have of yourself.

8) What are some of your top tips to brands for running campaigns? How do you maintain authenticity?

I think keeping it real is the most important thing. When it come to campaigns, companies may think they have a clear and firm idea of who they want to target and how the people will react to their products when in reality people have a million other ways of wearing/using the products. So I guess authenticity comes from your individuality and how your thought process is when it comes to your creativity when using what is common.

9) What would your advice be on the importance of quality and original content?

I think the best advice would be (as cliche as it sounds) be true to yourself and make sure what you post is a reflection of who you are and not who you’re trying to mimic.

10) What do you like best about partnering with brands?

I love the excitement of anything new and being part of spreading the word to things that have a potential of being great things.
