Some people just aren't meant to fit neatly in a box. Dylan Geick is surely one of them. Gorgeous, talented, and boasting hundreds of thousands of fans across Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok, the social media heartthrob went from a wrestling star at Columbia University to a full-fledged influencer in Los Angeles. While he could have easily stayed living the luxe life, he decided to ditch school and the flashy lifestyle to, well, join the army. Did we mention he's also a published poet? Oh, and only 22 years old?

His career isn't the only thing he refuses to label. Openly bisexual, Dylan defies stereotypes. Even when it comes to his more "masculine" pursuits, as he told V Man in his recent cover debut, "this myth of the Western, strong male who doesn't feel, it doesn't map to reality for me."

Endlessly cool, and the definition of a creative free spirit, Dylan is one to watch. Especially with his next book on the way. Click through to catch up on everything you need to know!
