He’s perhaps best known for his role as Billy Loomer in the beloved series Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide, where he really made a name for himself. But before that, he actually had a small part in the comedy film Big Fat Liar, which starred Frankie Muniz and Amanda Bynes—so he was already gaining some early experience on screen. Now, when it comes to how he got started, well, his acting journey began even earlier than most people realize. Believe it or not, he first appeared in an N’Sync music video, which kind of set the stage for what was to come. As for his background, he’s originally from California and has deep roots there. In fact, he moved to Southern California back in 1999, which ended up being a pivotal move for his career. Yeah, you could say things really started coming together for him after that. He’s definitely come a long way since those early days.
He’s really passionate about photography and scuba diving—both of which he’s been deeply involved in for years. During one particularly exciting chapter, he served as an intern at the Reef Check Foundation, where his love for underwater exploration and capturing marine life through the lens truly flourished. His time there not only strengthened his skills but also deepened his commitment to ocean conservation. He often reflects on that experience as a turning point, where his hobbies and purpose began to align in meaningful ways.
