Career

My Baby; the award recognizes "outstanding achievement in individual artistry, vocal, dance and acting performances for a male lead in a high school musical theatre production." As a result, he represented Michigan at the 2017 National High School Musical Theater Awards (also known as the Jimmy Awards) and placed in the top four finalists out of the thirty-six male competitors.In 2018, he was cast in the original Cambridge, Massachusetts, production of the musical Jagged Little Pill, inspired by the album of the same name by Alanis Morissette.

Following previews of Jagged Little Pill, the production opened on Broadway in December 2019. The musical was nominated for fifteen Tony Awards, winning two. The production was paused in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
