Biografia
Grayson was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma where he resides with his mother and favorite fan Christi Jones. He has attended Southwest Covenant School since kindergarten and he will graduate in 2022. Grayson began acting with the Oklahoma Children's Theater. From the age of 5 through 12 he soaked up instruction and played roles in several stage productions. His love of acting led him to audition for parts in his school plays such as Cinderella, The Music Man, Fiddler on the Roof and his favorite role, Mr. Beaver in The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. Grayson was selected for his school honor choir as well as Oklahoma All State Choirs and participated in both for 4 years. He is a classically trained pianist in his 9th year of instruction (2020-2021) with Dr. Marilyn Rosfeld.
Kind, generous and helpful are words that describe Grayson. He has a gentle spirit and looks for every opportunity to help and support others. He is quite a perfectionist when it comes to his skills and is sometimes really hard on himself. In his free time he likes to compose music, teach himself to play guitar, learn new dialects and accents, ride long boards with his favorite cousins Sammie and Charlie and hang out with his mother and grandparents John and Carolyn Knippers. Occasionally he likes to play games with his best friends Jesse, Joel, Caleb and Joseph. Grayson enjoys school and as a result of his excellent grades he was inducted into The Congress of Future Medical Leaders Honors program (2020).
Star Steps Dance Studio in Edmond, Oklahoma invited him to study hip hop dance which he did under director Elizabeth Parks. He has an open invitation for dance "tutoring" should he ever need it for an acting role. He has studied vocal music with Angela Frazier, CJ Carpenter, and Jeff Ambrosini. He has been training with vocal coach James Lugo since January 2020. Grayson models for photographer Creel McFarland at Limerick Studio in Edmond, Oklahoma, Cris Duncan Photography of Lubbock, Texas and for Texas School of Professional Photography. He had his first experience with runway modeling at an LA Showcase in December 2019 and is really looking forward to more runway opportunities.
Grayson's passion is acting, singing, and modeling and he is committed to the continual development and sharpening of his skills. He is in training at The Actor Factory in Norman, Oklahoma and has studied under Chris Oz McIntosh, Jenn Rader, Tori Hartley, Jamie Marchi, Kimberly Condict, and Darrly Cox. He loves to entertain and looks forward to opportunities for acting on television and in movies. His goal is to turn his love of acting, singing, and modeling into a lifelong career!
