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

Hi Sahid, what are you inspired by?
I am inspired by people who embrace who they truly are and aren’t worried about what other people think

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.
I am a skateboarder and lifestyle model from Virginia working and living in Los Angeles. The decision to move across the country was a big decision or so people tell me but honestly I can’t help but feel blessed in the good fortune I’ve had in my year here. I’m also just getting started so you guys will probably see me around!

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?
I love to grab a bite at comfort la and I’m a food truck slayer I’m always on the lookout for them

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 want to dedicate this to my friends and family in Virginia who supported me doing what I felt was right for me and pursuing a career in things that I like and not living a life I would not enjoy
