Kip's early life was marked by a sense of adventure and exploration, as he was born in Washington D.C. to parents Richard and Ginny Weeks. His father, a retired diplomat of the United States Foreign Service, played a significant role in shaping Kip's worldview, as the family moved to Bogota, Colombia when Kip was just six months old.
This early exposure to international travel and culture had a profound impact on Kip, who went on to spend his formative years living throughout South and Central America. His travels took him to Lagos, Nigeria, where he spent three years immersing himself in the local culture and developing a unique perspective on the world.
As he entered adulthood, Kip's sense of wanderlust eventually brought him to the United States, where he settled in Key West, Florida, Los Angeles, California, and Wilmington, North Carolina. It was in Wilmington, affectionately known as "Hollywood East," that Kip discovered his passion for acting.
After honing his craft through several independent films, Kip landed his first professional role in the Disney/Jerry Bruckheimer production of Glory Road, a film that marked a significant milestone in his burgeoning career.
