Charleston could be seeing one of its own in a spread in GQ magazine.

Cyrus Buffum, 26, is one of 122 men around the nation nominated for GQ’s Better Men Better World search. The nominees had to be a “man who strives every day for the betterment of society through charitable work, volunteerism, and community involvement.”

Buffum is a native of Cape Cod, Mass., and came to South Carolina in 2002 to attend the College of Charleston. He learned to sail at 13 and was drawn to the school’s sailing program.
