Hey y’all! I’m Max — a 19 year old actor and vocalist.
I’m currently in college pursuing my BFA in Musical Theatre at Missouri State University, and I’ve been performing since I was nine years old (shoutout to my very glamorous debut as a villager in Beauty and the Beast). What started as childhood excitement quickly turned into something much bigger - a love and passion that I know will last me a lifetime.
Over the years, I’ve gotten to dive into shows like Into the Woods, The Lightning Thief, Anastasia, and Cats — each one pushing me in new ways and making me fall in love with this art form again and again.
The past few years have been wild in the best way. I had the honor of performing as a featured soloist at the Jimmy Awards, and the performance has since reached over 1.2 million views on TikTok (still wrapping my head around that). I was also named a Winner with Distinction in the national YoungArts competition — an experience that challenged me, inspired me, and reminded me why I do this.
Both of those performances are in my video gallery if you want to take a look :)
