Born in Weston, Connecticut, Ross spent his formative years in the picturesque town, cultivating a strong foundation that would later serve him well in his multifaceted career. Following his graduation from Brown University, Ross ventured into the realms of finance, music, and internet start-ups, gradually discovering his true passion for the performing arts.
The catalyst for this transformation was his introduction to the world of acting, which he stumbled upon while residing in San Francisco. Enrolling in a beginner's acting class at the prestigious American Conservatory Theater (ACT) during the evening hours, Ross was immediately captivated by the art form. This initial exposure led him to enroll in ACT's full-time Summer Training Congress acting intensive, a decision that would forever alter the trajectory of his life.
In 2002, Ross made the bold decision to relocate to Los Angeles, where he initially divided his time between pursuing his acting ambitions and managing Ford Motor Company's branded entertainment activities on the West Coast as part of the ad agency Team Detroit. During this period, he developed a unique expertise in branded content, which he now leverages to produce starring vehicles for himself while securing funding and distribution from prominent brands.
Now dedicating himself full-time to his acting career, Ross has had the privilege of appearing in numerous television shows, including Scandal, Arrested Development, Mad Men, and New Girl, as well as a plethora of national commercials and the Oscar-winning feature film Bombshell. When he's not gracing the small or big screens, Ross can be found residing in Los Angeles with his loving wife and two adorable daughters.
