NAME
Born Abraham Marquez Lawyer, he goes by the nickname Abe.
BIRTHDAY
A Gemini whose birthday falls on May 23, 2003, he turned 20 this year.
HEIGHT
He stands at 196.85 centimeters or approximately 6 feet and 5½ inches tall.
FAMILY
He is the son of Miss International 2019 Melanie Marquez with American husband, lawyer, and ranch owner, Randy "Adam" Lawyer.
He displays close familial ties with his four maternal half-siblings, including the 28-year-old pageant titleholder Michelle Dee.
HOMETOWN
Growing up on their family ranch in Utah, United States, Abe developed a deep affection for farm animals and appreciation for the countryside.
Suffice it to say, one look at his Instagram feed reveals his ranch lifestyle had been so rich and colorful, ranging from bull fights to gathering stragglers, freezing hinds (red deer), and farming.
EDUCATION
Abraham has his sights set on higher education.
Currently in the Philippines, he revealed plans to return to USA in January 2024 for a four-year marketing course in a private institution.
SPORTS
He's been called a "tennis heartthrob" by GMA in 2019, after photos of him competing in international and national tennis tournaments circulated widely.
Horse-riding isn't merely a pastime for Abe but a physical discipline and a genuine passion.
He has posted casual hangouts with friends, skateboarding, rock- and wall-climbing.
MISSIONARY ACTIVITIES
In 2019, Abraham embarked on a two-year missionary service in Chile, representing The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, commonly referred to as the Mormon church.
His return to USA in October 2023 marked the culmination of a full-time mission, aligning with his steadfast support for Michelle's big moment at the 72nd Miss Universe coronation night in El Salvador.

Like his big sister Michelle and mom Melanie, he's got the modeling mojo too.
With his towering height and handsome looks, the 20-year-old heartthrob landed some ramp and editorial modeling gigs.
For a campaign with Filipino fashion brand Bench in 2020, Abraham who was then 18 years old, conducted a photo shoot right at their Utah family ranch.
HOBBIES
ENVIRONMENTAL PRESERVATION
Abe devotes time for environmental causes.
An example would be his participation as a volunteer in the coastal cleanup of the lava fields at La Perouse Bay in south Maui in Hawaii, saying, "I always look forward to these types of projects :)"
