Welcome
Jordan hails from the lush city of Seattle, earning his BA in Theater & Acting from WWU. After non-stop performances in the city and traveling for a year with Missoula Children's Theater, he set his sights on Chicago, culminating in the booking of his first national commercial, and graduating from the prestigious Second City Conservatory. Now in LA, Jordan regularly improvises in a house ensemble at Second City Hollywood, and will soon be starring in the feature film, "Arranged Marriage" (Formula Features), in a leading role. Jordan is represented theatrically by Affinity Artists and commercially by Activity.
