It is very important to have deep friendships of the opposite sex to learn so much about yourself and what you need as a human.

I have a tattoo on my arm that says, 'Would you be proud to die this way?' And that's my reminder to continue to treat people well and love people, and if I took my last breath right now, would I be happy with who I am?
My 'Collaboration Wish List' is a mile long.
There are over 400 parks in all 50 states that represent our country and that are enriched with stories that tell about how our country became what it is today. There is a lot of history frozen in these places.
This is all I wanna do; I want to entertain. I want to make music. I want do film.

I'm a massive fan of Troye Sivan, Ariana Grande, and Justin Timberlake.

Never find yourself bored at work.
I'm an artist through and through.

I moisturize head to toe daily.
I am adopted, and I am so grateful for my story, and that's what makes me who I am.
I take constructive criticism really well.
My upbringing in Birmingham gave me a sense of reality. I could not pick another city I would rather have grown up in. Growing up around really good, solid, godly people, it helped me to find those kind of great people in L.A., too, which can be hard for some people.
I'm a massive 'Mario' fan in general.
Being able to invest in my community and invest in areas that people might not really know about and monuments that people might not know about in their own backyard is a great opportunity.
My relationship with God and my parents, that's what keeps me together. I know that everything could end as soon as it starts.
I fell in love with art and music and dance and acting and how all those things can cultivate something really special and unique - depending on the performance and the show. That really kind of helped me develop my love of theater.
I love my people. I love my family.
I kind of adopt family friends and take people in.
Prioritize your family.
I've always been a huge, huge gamer in general, and I definitely grew up with all Nintendo products, and the Super Mario franchise has been a franchise that has shaped culture.
I'm mixed, and I'm proud of that.
What I learned growing up in Red Mountain Theatre Company is real power and time management and how to represent myself well. How to show up earlier and stay later. Red Mountain Theatre Company, in my opinion, is the most incredible theater conservatory in the world.
I like to cook and have wine and listen to music and just chill with people that I love.
'Rent' resonates with people across generations because it's really great art.

Find community.
I always wanted to work on Broadway. That's something I always wanted to do.
Nintendo Switch goes with me pretty much everywhere.
I encourage everybody to hop on Google and type in 'national park' in whatever state they live in and see the beauty that lies in their own backyard. It's that simple.
At the end of the day, I want to do film, and I want to do TV, but I grew up on stage, and I love music.

It's weird when somebody I don't know from Adam knows my face and knows my name.
I want to be an incredible father, an incredible husband and take great care of my wife and all my kids and do what I love to do during the day to provide for them. That, ultimately, is what I see as being successful. I just aspire to be even half of how wonderful as my parents are.
Be kind. Be kind. Be kind.
There are only a couple characters and people in the world where, in history, where you can go anywhere in the world and say that character or person, that name, that song, and everyone knows what it is. Mickey Mouse is one, Disney, in general. In terms of gaming, Super Mario, he's everywhere.
When you're on Broadway, what's kind of the whole point is that you find something new in the show each night.
I love my home state and my hometown. I'm so grateful to Birmingham and Alabama for what it made me.
I started playing on my grandmother's organ at a really young age. I learned 'Chopsticks' and that kind of thing, but I didn't really start picking it up and start taking it super seriously until I was probably about 13, 14.
I was gymnast for a long time, so that helped with understanding my body.
I love Black History Month and celebrating my ancestral roots, but not just my blackness, which is so beautiful. But my Tahitian and my Italian - everything that makes me, me.
Family is family. I grew up in a household where all the four-legged animals were as important as the two-legged animals.
I can't thank Birmingham and Alabama enough for the love and support. I can't thank everyone enough for their time and love and commitment.
The woman who gave birth to me, I don't have a relationship with. I'm not looking for one, either.
My biological mother had me at 16, and it was just too young.
