Young and up-and-coming model and influencer Mitch Tummel is poised for a successful run as one of the industry’s premier models. His irresistible charisma and solid work ethic place him in an excellent position to become a solid talent that agencies and companies will be more than willing to work with in the future.

Growing up in a small town in the state of Michigan, Mitch became acclimatized to the thrill. He loved sports and action and got the hang of racing around in dirt bikes from an early age. Mitch always thought he would become a professional dirt bike racer, but life would have other plans. One of his bike sponsors approached the racer and offered him a gig in modeling. “It was for a shoot for their new winter apparel,” recalls Mitch Tummel. “I didn’t even know modeling was much of a thing, and I definitely never gave it any thought to try it myself.”

A month after the shoot, Mitch’s photos appeared on the company’s website and social media accounts. Not long after, he started getting calls from some large modeling agencies and talent management companies to offer him more projects. It was all very new for the dirt bike racer from Michigan, but he gave it a shot for adventure and trying new things. Luckily, he started doing school online at that time, which gave him plenty of room to balance school, dirt bike racing, and modeling.

At sixteen years old, Mitch had signed his first modeling contract, and he was off to the races with his modeling career. In 2017, he would travel across the country for a test shoot with Retina Conspiracy, a New Orleans, Louisiana-based photographer with over 17,000 followers on Instagram. Since then, Mitch Tummel has worked with a variety of large agencies and national brands. The model has appeared in several publications and magazines and would increase his following on his social media channels through his fashion work.

After a long and successful run in modeling, Mitch would take a three-month break to focus on his studies and finish his senior year. After graduating early, Mitch and the whole world would experience the shock of the COVID-19 crisis. As the world recuperates from the global pandemic’s blunt blow, Mitch carefully plans his reentry into the modeling world. He hopes to complete an editorial book with some top fashion photographers.

In recent times, Mitch Tummel has also started diving into acting, joining workshops to try to work on his skills and break into the world of television soon. He currently trains with some of the best acting coaches online. Mitch has also started podcasting through the pandemic, launching his show called The Mitch All In, which he shares has been an enjoyable process.

Through all the twists and turns that he’s been through, Mitch remains exceptionally grateful for the opportunity to work a career that takes him all over the world to meet people. He hopes to continue his career’s upward trajectory as soon as the world returns to a semblance of normal.
