Growing up, Adrian was an athletic individual, playing various sports such as baseball, football, and basketball, but it was dancing that truly captured his heart. He participated in numerous hip-hop and breakdancing competitions, earning great success.
When his high school was searching for the lead dancer in the musical Fame, Adrian auditioned and subsequently landed the role. This marked the beginning of his acting career.
