The Los Angeles native went on to land the starring role in the New Line Cinema short film, The Jacket, guest starred on the television program Saved by the Bell: The New Class, and became a household name as LaMarr Hicks on the UPN hit series Sparks. The role afforded the young actor the opportunity to reach a large fan base, and his comedic timing landed him an accredited role in the film Trippin'.
