Jack

Hello from Canada. I live in the country, an hour north of Toronto. I have lots of brothers and sisters and lots of pets. I have horses but don’t ride much. Being Canadian, I am a huge hockey fan. The Leafs are my favorite team. I love baseball and am into martial arts. U2 and ACDC are my favorite bands but I pretty much listen to everything from Beethoven to John Mayer to Hans Zimmer. I will be turning 16 in the Andes and am very excited to be part of this team.

I am currently being home schooled and have been for the past year and a half (Grade 9, 10) due to my professional commitments. I’ve been an actor half my life and miss quite a bit of school due to my work. I plan to pursue a career in filmmaking and hope to attend L.A. Film School when I’m older. Being an actor has allowed me to travel quite a bit. I have seen most of Canada, a lot of the States and spent 2 months last year in Japan. I first met Erik Weihenmayer in Calgary on the set of Touch the Top of the World, a film of Erik’s life. His accomplishments greatly inspired me and led me to apply for Leading the Way.
