I really realized when I was around 10 years old. I always loved being the center of the stage and being in plays and what not, but then when I started watching the walking dead that’s when I knew I wanted to be on TV and I wouldn’t stop bothering my parent’s until they made my dream come true.

My strengths as an actor are being able to memorize a 15 page script in 2 days and perform exactly the way the casting directors want it.

I prepare by going over my lines a gazillion times and practicing with either my mom or dad. 

WHAT TYPE OF ROLE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF PLAYING IN THE FUTURE?
I see myself playing a coming of age movie or something comedic.

I would say positive influencers that use their social media for positive things.
