He was born around Dallas, Texas, to Kyrah, a bookkeeper turned CFO, and Michael, the sales manager at a moving company. He considers his mom his personal hero, having watched her work her way to the top as he grew up. After graduating from Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, he moved to California in an attempt to have a career in the film industry. But after two years, feeling like a failure, he moved back home to Texas. In an identity crisis, he considered giving it up to go for a steadier route. But, after booking the lead in a community theatre production of Delirium's Daughters at Rover Dramawerks, his spark was reignited. After booking a few small television roles at the start of 2021, he's trying to just keep building momentum as he's in the transitional phase between booking professional work and becoming a full-time working actor. In between filming, he operates as a General Manager and Banquet Manager at a wedding venue space in Richardson, Texas.
