Meinhard St. John, an accomplished actor, model, can credit his rich, diverse background and quest for adventure for his multifaceted career. Meinhard was born on the Faroe Islands and spent part of childhood living in Greenland. When he grew up, he moved to Denmark and initially pursued a more traditional career path.

In his tradition, Meinhard knew once again that it was time to step out of his comfort zone and grow even further. He knew that meant it was time to relocated to America.
