Biography

Aidan is a talented actor who has made a significant impact in the entertainment industry. He is ranked #2 on IMDB's "Top 10 Breakout Stars of 2020" and #7 on IMDB's "Top 10 Stars of 2020". His recent role in Netflix's The Umbrella Academy, where he played the fan-favorite character Number Five, has received widespread acclaim, with David Betancourt from The Washington Post describing his performance as "...one of the show's main delights".

Aidan's impressive credentials also include being named one of the top actors under the age of 25 on Variety's Power of Young Hollywood Ones to Watch list in August 2018. He has also been nominated for Favorite Male TV Star at the Kids Choice Awards twice for his role in the Emmy Award-winning series "Nicky, Ricky, Dicky and Dawn". Additionally, he has hosted the Kids Choice Sports Awards.

As an up-and-coming singer-songwriter musician, Aidan has made significant strides in the music industry. He was selected for the prestigious Big Break Accelerator Program Showcase for the 2020 SXSW festival, making him the youngest solo artist to ever perform at SXSW. His self-produced music singles have received recognition in two prestigious competitions, earning him several Honorable Mentions and a People's Choice Winner Award for his song '4th of July'. His music videos for his six debut singles have garnered over 30 million combined views on his YouTube channel.

Aidan has also made a significant impact outside of the entertainment industry. In June 2018, he became the youngest United Nations Ambassador in history, representing the youth of the world on behalf of the United Nations for several climate action initiatives. He has spoken at the 2019 Global Climate Action Summit and hosted the Illegal Wildlife Trade Summit on invitation of the UK Government, introducing the Duke of Cambridge (Prince William) to the stage.

As an accomplished singer, songwriter, guitar and piano player, and composer/producer, Aidan's first passion is a love of the ocean and working to save the environment.
