An extremely serious & exclusive interview!
WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE COLOR?
My favorite color is Blue!
WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE SUBJECT IN SCHOOL? WHY?
Math because it helps me learn and succeed in problem solving and succeed in doing things.
WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT BEING AN ACTOR?
I like being an actor because I like playing make-believe and I like memorizing lines, and I actually like being on set with all the big lights and cameras and playing the character by repeating the lines in different ways.
I like giving the creator and director choices, and I say the lines different ways and they can pick which way they like me saying the lines.
WHICH HAS BEEN YOUR FAVORITE PROJECT TO WORK ON AND WHY?
Pivoting - because I like the people that I work with, the people that are there, and the concept of the show. And my character Luke and how the crew does things and make magic happen daily.
WHEN YOU’RE NOT ON SET, WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR FAVORITE HOBBIES?
When I’m not working on set, I enjoy spending my time studying the craft of Kenpo Karate, playing minor baseball, learning guitar, writing in my journal, and reading and going on adventures with my best friends.
WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE JOKE?
Question: You know your name? So spell your name!
Epic punch line: Your Name
HOW DO YOU THINK THEY FILL TWINKIES UP WITH WHIPPED CREAM?
I think they get a whip cream tube with a needle at the top, and fill it up with whip cream and then poke a hole into the Twinkie and squeeze the tube and ouila - the whip cream is inside the Twinkie!
IF YOU MET A GENIE AND COULD GET 3 WISHES, WHAT WOULD YOUR 3 WISHES BE?
My 3 wishes would be an infinite amount of chocolate, a lot of money, and a lot of dogs.
WHO WOULD WIN THE BATTLE; A T-REX OR VELOCIRAPTOR?
A Velociraptor would win the battle, because the Velociraptor would hide in the jungle underneath bushes and trees and would swoop in and scratch the t-rex lets until it can’t walk and falls down.
ANY SHOUT-OUTS YOU’D LIKE TO MAKE TO YOUR FAMILY, FRIENDS, OR FANS?
To my family and friends, thank you for everything and I love all of you. And to my fans thank you for the positive comments and enjoying my acting work on all my projects I’ve done since I was 4 years old. And please keep watching my new show Pivoting!
