While attending the University of Ottawa, Quddus' artistic passion earned him a spot as the host and programmer of a hit campus radio show. In 1999, Elite Modeling Agency took notice of Quddus and signed him as their next Rising Star as he scored campaigns for Levis, Coca-Cola, and Honda. With a fast rising modeling and radio career, in 2000 Quddus took over as the host of VOX, a new Youth Culture Show on TV Ontario. VOX would go on to win a Gemini Award (Canada's version of the Emmy), while for Quddus it led to his big break - hosting Total Request Live on MTV.
